Oued Beth, Morocco
Circular, flat, coppery craft
Maroc-Presse reported that one of its employees, Mr. E, driver of a delivery truck, "a man of sane judgment and excellent eyesight," observed an object flying over the Beth River. "I am positive it was not an aircraft or any known machine but a circular object, flat craft which had the appearance of copper. It flew normally for some time, then it suddenly flipped over. Therefore, I was able to see the whole disk and was amazed when it came down into a field where it landed on edge, very gently. Almost immediately it rose into the sky at great speed, resumed its horizontal position and was soon lost to sight." A flying disc was observed. It departed by rapidly flying straight up until lost to sight.One saucer was observed by one male witness on a river for over six minutes.
