A number of expats have come forward to claim that a series of low-flying military jets that awoke the Costa del Sol may have been chasing a UFO.
The residents of Benahavis and Estepona - where a trio of fighter jets undertook their mysterious 5am sortie on Easter Sunday - believe that the planes may have been tailing an "alien craft".
While the authorities refused to comment on the incident, the Olive Press has been inundated with calls and emails from concerned residents.
One British reader, who asked to remain anonymous, told the paper this weekend: "It was terrifying. They were clearly tailing this strange-looking craft.
"I cannot describe what it was, but it was long and thin and had flashing lights. It was definitely not a plane or helicopter.
"It made a very strange sound and moved slowly before suddenly shooting off at top speed."
