Close encounter with a an unidentified craft and its occupants. One disc, about 10 feet across, about ten feet away, was observed by one male 27-year-old witness at a house (Caetano Silveira). A being was seen. Paula Caetano Silveira was awakened from sleep, as if by "a mental shock." From his bed he saw a light in the garden; he went to the kitchen where he saw, through the window grating, the same object that had stopped him on September 22, hovering a half meter from the ground about 3 meters from his house. Paulo Caetano saw several small figures beside the craft, who pointed a small box-like implement in his direction; the witness and the small figures remained eyeing each other, with no movement, for 10 minutes, at which point Paulo Caetano's head began to ache. The craft and its occupants then left, but the witness was unable to sleep.
