Did aliens with lemon-shaped heads land in the Midlands?

AN ALIEN with a lemon-shaped head told two terrified Midland boys: “We want you, come with us.”

The figure confronted the young boys who had stopped in a field at 23.55 on May 4, 1995, in Chasetown, Staffordshire, to stare at what they believed was an UFO.

Police thought it was an aircraft.

The episode is recorded in official files from the Ministry of Defence.

Attempted abductions, scrambled fighter jets and flying saucers over Glastonbury are among the hundreds of dramatic reports of close encounters released by the MoD today.

The officer’s report reads the boys arrived “agitated and distressed” after gazing at the UFO which emitted an intense heat before zig-zagging off east to west.

“They stated the object was about four houses high in the sky and about forty foot away from them,” said the report.

“They then, reluctantly, went on to say that a voice which came from a lemon-like head, which appeared beneath the machine said ‘We want you, come with us’.

“Both appeared upset and shocked and as such it was increasingly difficult to obtain detailed information from them.”

The boys were sent home and told to write up their account. One of the boys said they were drawn to the field by an intense heat.

When they walked into the field off Rugeley Road, Burntwood, there was a flash of light then some sort of spaceship allegedly appeared.

It sent his friend’s face “the colour of beetroot” the boy wrote.

His friend wrote after hearing the command to go with the lemon-head: “I just said ‘run’.
