A UFO has been spotted hoovering over the East Lancs in St Helens - nightshift worker Michael Simpson, 31, took these snaps using his mobile phone camera.
He was cycling home at around 4.30am travelling on the Liverpool-bound carriageway when he was stopped in his tracks by the object, which he estimates to be flying at around 300ft.
