Tres Arroyos, Argentina
Several bar patrons saw 6.5' tall being in blue-green coveralls walk into the restroom and not emerge. Vanished.
Close encounter with a an unidentified craft and its occupants. An unidentified object at close range and its occupants were observed by several witnesses at a bar briefly. One 6.5-foot-tall tall being, wearing a blue-green coverall and belt, was seen.
Alfonso Rey was watching TV when the picture stopped; as he got up to adjust it, he saw a man seated in an armchair in the opposite end of the room; he wore a one-piece coverall of a blue green color, whose fabric appeared metallic, with a black belt and a helmet like those formerly worn by airmen, and with short boots. On the belt was a small box or device. He stood up, at least 6.5 ft tall, and Rey asked him what he wanted; he merely held his hand out, which felt cold and abnormally soft, "like foam rubber," Rey could not described the features save for the eyes, "which seemed to emit a silvery light." They both sat down again; Rey now began to feel a condition of unusual well-being. He went into the kitchen, followed by the stranger, where he noticed that the refrigerator's motor was not running normally; he also noticed that his visitor seemed to "walk on air." Rey offered him a glass of water, which he declined. Then the man pressed buttons on his belt apparatus, causing an amber-colored light to come on; the being then went to the kitchen door and, looking up at the sky, pressed other buttons; he then walked out into the yard, where he vanished in thin air, leaving no trace. Later that afternoon, around 1620, other people reported seeing a similar "stranger" in a bar on the corner of Calle Alsina and Calle Pringles, in Tres Arroyos. Descriptions by several witnesses matched those provided by Rey. They said the "stranger" went into the bathroom and did not emerge. No further details are available.
