UFO spotted by police in Lithuania

Summary

In June 1996, two Lithuanian police officers spotted a spherical object near the capital, Vilnius. The object hovered at a low altitude, 20-30 meters above the ground, and exhibited strange behavior: it contracted and expanded, emitting an electrical crackling sound. The officers approached, but the object quickly departed. After raising the alert, reinforcements with sniffer dogs and soldiers arrived. Although nothing suspicious was found, the tall grass around the area was flattened in a 10-meter radius. Lithuanian scientists had not yet commented, but authorities confirmed the officers were psychologically stable individuals.

The scene was carefully investigated: radiation levels were measured, the sound was recorded, and the area was scanned. Despite the dogs showing no signs of alarm, the phenomenon left unanswered questions. This case, though unresolved, was taken seriously by Lithuanian authorities, showing that even in 1996, UFO sightings still generated official interest.
