Another UFO sighting over Wakefield?
A UFO sighting has been reported in Wakefield after a mysterious set of orange lights appeared above the city.
The object was spotted on Saturday evening, above Thornes, and moved towards the city centre.
It was similar to a strange set of lights seen above west and south Leeds last week.
Express sports reporter Nick Rigg said he saw the bright orange lights at around 9pm.
He said: "I usually see a few planes going over to Leeds-Bradford airport but these were definitely not planes, they looked like flames in the sky.
"At first sight I thought they were the remains of fireworks but they must have stayed in the sky for a good five minutes and looked a lot, lot farther away.
"The first set disappeared and then three of four more followed shortly afterwards before disappearing a few minutes later."
Anyone who has pictures of the UFO can send them to donmort@wakefieldexpress.co.uk or contact him on 01924 433013.
