DARK, unexplained shapes have been spotted 1,000ft above the streets of Hatfield.

Up to six unidentified objects were clocked descending towards the town at around 5pm on Saturday.

The strange sighting was reported to an online UFO forum by a witness known only as MR.

Recalling the incident, he wrote: "The dark objects reached approximately 1000ft, then maintained altitude and position while grouping together.

"The collective size got smaller, in to one object, dark in colour, irregular shape...no lights, no sounds, no hard edges.

"The object then gained altitude slowly and steadily in the same way a helicopter or balloon would, but only vertically, no change in location."

He claimed a friend Dimitri also saw the bizarre phenomenon and lamented the fact he could not get a photo.

"I couldn't take a picture as I don't have a camera," he said.

"My basic camera-phone would have only shown an unrecognisable dot in the sky!
