  • Introduction to Video Content
  • Southern Nevada is abuzz with stories of an alleged alien encounter in Las Vegas. A strange object crashed and strange creatures were sighted in the backyard of a home in the northwest valley. The incident was first reported by investigator David Sharnes of 8News Now, who revealed that Metro Police responded to a call from a frightened family on May 1st. The story gained global attention and piecing together the events has been challenging due to the elusive nature of the witnesses. Chief investigator George Knapp, no stranger to UFO cases, expressed his perplexity.
    The incident shares similarities with other bizarre cases worldwide, involving an alleged crash, encounters with strange beings, and unexplained details. However, both the police and investigators take this incident seriously. On the night of April 30th, numerous sky watchers across several western states witnessed a bright fireball streak across the sky. A police officer in the Northwest Valley captured the colorful object on his body camera. Simultaneously, a doorbell camera recorded a peculiar noise and a crashing sound.
    In particular, one family residing in a ranch-style home had a remarkably close encounter with the object. While the two brothers and their father were working on a vehicle in their yard, they witnessed the object as it descended and crashed nearby. They reported being hit by a shockwave upon impact. One of the witnesses, a young man named Angel, revealed that when they looked into the yard where the object had landed, the spot appeared obscured and blurry, as if hidden by an unknown form of camouflage.
    The mysterious events in Las Vegas have captured the attention of the public and investigators alike. With the primary witnesses remaining elusive, unraveling the truth behind this alleged alien encounter continues to be a perplexing task.
  • Subtitles section
  • SOUTHERN NEVADA IS ABUZZ TONIGHT WITH STORIES ABOUT THE CRASH OF AN UNKNOWN OBJECT AND THE ALLEGED SIGHTING OF STRANGE CREATURES IN THE BACKYARD OF A NORTHWEST VALLEY HOME.
  • IT WAS LAST NIGHT THAT 8NEWS NOW INVESTIGATOR DAVID SHARNES REPORTED ABOUT HOW METRO POLICE RESPONDED, BACK ON MAY FIRST, AFTER RECEIVING A STRANGE CALL FROM A VERY FRIGHTENED FAMILY.
  • OUR REPORT GENERATED A GLOBAL RESPONSE, AND NOW PIECING TOGETHER THE SEQUENCE OF EVENTS HAS BEEN TRICKY, IN PART BECAUSE THE PRIMARY WITNESSES HAVE BEEN ALMOST AS ELUSIVE AS THE BEINGS THEY SAY THEY ENCOUNTERED.
  • CHIEF INVESTIGATOR GEORGE KNAPP IS AS PERPLEXED AS THE REST OF US. As you know, this is not our first UFO rodeo.
  • We first heard about the incident in early May via the Metro Police Grapevine.
  • The incident has a lot in common with other bizarre cases from around the world, an alleged crash, strange beings, and bits and pieces that don't make sense.
  • But the police took this seriously, and so do we.
  • Just before midnight on April 30th, sky watchers across several western states saw a bright fireball streak through the heavens.
  • A police officer working in the Northwest Valley caught a glimpse of the colorful object on his body cam.
  • At nearly the same time, a ring camera in the area recorded a strange noise and what sounds like a crash.
  • One family living in a ranch-style home had a much closer view of the object.
  • Two brothers and their father were working on a vehicle in their yard when they caught a glimpse of a sparkly object as it came crashing down, then were hit by what they describe as a shockwave.
  • One of the witnesses, a young man named Angel, has stated when the brothers looked into the yard where the object landed, that spot was obscured and blurry, as if by unknown form of camouflage.
  • What they saw next prompted a frantic call to 911.
  • So there's two people or two subjects that are in your backyard?
  • Correct, and they're very large.
  • They're like eight foot, nine feet, ten foot, I don't know.
  • They look like aliens to us.
  • Big eyes, they have big eyes, like I can't explain it, and big mouth.
  • They're shiny eyes, and they're not human.
  • They're 100% not human.
  • 8 News Now investigators have spoken with family members multiple times in the past four weeks, but each of the three times we accepted their invitation to do an interview, they didn't answer the door or their phone.
  • These are some of the claims they've made in other public forums.
  • Multiple family members backed up the story in an initial police report we obtained.
  • Angel says they heard the patter of multiple feet in the yard.
  • They later heard footsteps on their roof.
  • They saw one of the eight-foot tall creatures climb behind the controls of a large front loader stored in the yard, as if trying to engage it.
  • He got a good look at one of the creatures, he said, a greenish-grayish being with large eyes and long legs.
  • He says he could hear its deep breaths, and when he locked eyes, he was, in essence, frozen in place, couldn't move.
  • In the middle of the yard, where the object had crashed, then vanished, a circular impression was left in the soil.
  • Metro sources say the police dispatcher initially wondered whether to send a crisis intervention team to help the troubled witness, but then took the incident seriously.
  • Two officers arrived 38 minutes after the call, and by then had heard from other officers.
  • They proceeded cautiously and managed some nervous laughs.
  • I ain't dealing with that.
  • A few days later, the family says, two Metro sergeants returned to the scene to ask follow-up questions.
  • The family says they also saw men in suits and sunglasses driving in a car with government plates cruising slowly past the house in the following days.
  • Nellis and Creech have denied any interest or involvement with the incident.
  • Metro has indicated they believe the family that something crashed in their yard, but what?
  • No, you mentioned George in that piece that, you know, they were frozen because so many people have been critical of, like, why didn't get their phone out?
  • Why didn't they?
  • Do we know if there's even any video of this?
  • Yes and no.
  • So there is a surveillance camera in the backyard.
  • The property owner keeps that because he's got a lot of expensive equipment there.
  • What we were told is that at the moment this thing comes down and crash, this camera went out and it was out for a couple of minutes when it came back on.
  • The object was gone, but the circle was there.
  • We've been told by Angel in multiple phone conversations that he shot video of the creatures.
  • We haven't seen it and we don't know anybody else who's seen it yet.
  • So maybe he'll release it at some point.
  • It's getting a lot of attention all over.
  • All right, George, thanks for that.
