Another UFO has been spotted in the skies above Huddersfield.

A small, bright green triangle was seen hovering over Bolster Moor at 10.33pm on Saturday - the same day hundreds of alien hunters descended on Holmfirth for the annual UFO Truth conference.

The sighting was reported on the website uk-ufo.co.uk by James D, who said: “Noticed a bright green small triangle over Bolster Moor looking from Linthwaite. Approx five seconds later it went at high speed away from Bolster Moor in the direction of Scapegoat Hill. It then disappeared from view.”

The sighting comes just two weeks after a mum reported seeing a UFO while driving on the M62 near Scammonden.

Posting on the same website she said: “It was a clear night, and on the moors there were no road lights, completely pitch dark.

“Suddenly as I am driving on the road to my left a very bright light appeared over the moor above us. Disc shaped, with green and red light slowly moving across the road high above our car.

“My daughter also noticed two blue lights as well on the rim of the flying object. The craft also spun slowly.

“We were in absolute shock. I kept driving and it made its way across the valley towards the m62. As we watched, in a blink of an eye it totally vanished.”

Dozens of UFO sightings in Huddersfield have been published on the website, dating back as far as 2009.
