Tivissa, Sierra de Almos, Tarragona, Spain. 0600 hrs. – 16 August, 1968
A man by the name of Mateu, who lived some 7 kilometres from Tivissa, had risen to take care of his cattle when he saw a light, rather like a reflection from a car, and about 1 kilometre away. Mateu called to his wife and, thinking that a car may have broken down or stalled, walked towards the object accompanied by his dog.
On getting closer, the witness noticed that it was not a car but an hemi-spherical object hovering about 1 metre above ground. The object was described as giving off a formidable amount of light. On the far side of the object Mateu saw two ‘things’ some 100 metres distant from the object and ‘running’ toward it. These AE resembled octopuses, about 1 metre tall in height and with ‘four or five legs’; very light in colour and thoroughly ‘disgusting’, according to Mateu.
A large area of burned grass was found in the area, however, two similar but older areas of burnt grass were found some distance away. On three occasions watches stopped at the site –the burned grass and watch stopping was also observed by an Austrian couple camping in the area.
Originally reported in Tele-Express, 27th August, 1968, the case was, again, reported on in FSR Special Issue no.4.
