Case description

Alejandra Martínez de Pascucci reported an unusual experience while returning home in Quilmes, Buenos Aires, in July 1968. A later account reproducing local newspaper testimony says that near Alvear and Saavedra streets she felt immobilized, saw a blinding light, and found herself inside a bright, hot enclosure. She described two tall luminous occupants, colored light at the windows, and an inability to understand their communication. She said that she was subsequently left near Ezpeleta cemetery and returned home by taxi. These are elements of her reported experience, not a witnessed exterior flight sequence. The catalogue uses July 3 at 11:30 p.m.; Roberto Banchs's account on Visión OVNI places the event on July 2 at about 8:30 p.m., citing Crónica and El Sol reports. The illustration therefore uses July 1968 without choosing between the conflicting dates and times. The source links preserve the fuller testimony and its publication history.
