This story certainly has been causing a great stir here in the
city of Monterrey, N.L.
It was very early in the morning 3:15 AM on Friday January 16, 2004
when police officer Leonardo Samaniego from Guadalupe, N.L. Mexico
was doing his daily vigilance routine in his patrol car around
Colonia Valles de la Silla not knowing the shocking experience that
he was about to live, a true drama that he will never forget.
The night was cold and dark and the streets were empty when
Samaniego made a turn onto Alamo street and immediately noticed
something very unusual.
A huge, black object fell from a tree beside the street but it
stopped just before touching the ground...and then slowly landed
and turned itself to face the patrol car. At that moment, officer
Samaniego knew that something was wrong. So he turned on the high
beams of his car to try to see what was this black object that fell
from the tree was.
That's when Samaniego's nightmare began.
"It was a woman...all dressed in black that fell from the tree but
she didn't touch the ground, just remained floating several feet
from the ground, declared officer Leonardo Samaniego. I saw her
very well and then she landed softly on the ground and stood there
looking at me. She was trying to cover her face from the lights of
the car, I think they were bothering her. I could see two big black
eyes on her, completely black without eyelids, and her skin was
dark brown. She was all dressed in black with cloak and cape like a
witch and she seemed very upset by the lights."
In a matter of seconds, the scene turned into a terrific sequence
of events almost like a horror movie...but all too real. The being
jumped very fast over to - and onto - Samaniego's patrol car trying
to get at him while the shocked police officer tried to runaway in
reverse while shouting desperately for back-up assistance on his
radio.
"As soon as I realized it was a kind of woman being, or a witch,
very strange standing there trying to cover her face, she threw
herself against my car very fast, falling on the car and hitting
the windshield. She was flying very fast and it took only a second
to hit the windshield glass. I was so shocked by this action that I
put the car in reverse and pushed the accelerator trying to get
away while requesting backup assistance by radio."
According to officer Samaniego's statement, the female being was
trying to grab him with her hands right through the car's
windshield. She was separated from the officer by only the few
centimeters of the car's windshield. It was at this moment that
officer Samaniego got his best visual look at the being he
described as a "witch".
"It was a woman with big black eyes, everything was black, no
eyelids. Her skin was dark brown and her expression was horrible.
She was furiously trying to get me with her claws while I was
running away in reverse calling desperately for backup assistance
to any units around. When I finally hit the end of the street, I
was so shocked that I covered my eyes and then I fainted."
Officer Leonardo Samaniego lost consciousness after he covered his
eyes trying not to see the frightening being still glued to the
windshield trying to get to him. The severe amount of high stress
experienced by him caused him to pass out.
Some minutes later, two police units arrived as well as an
ambulance that was nearby. When they got to the patrol car they
found officer Samaniego unconscious. Fortunately, he was not
injured, perhaps due to the fact that he never abandoned the car
during the incident. That decision may have prevented a
tragedy.
After several minutes, he regained consciousness and was attended
by the paramedics on the ambulance. A tv camera crew that arrived
with a police unit recorded officer Samaniego's first interview
just minutes after he felt calmed enough - during the interrogation
by his police colleagues. All this occurred at the same place of
the bizarre incident. Officer Samaniego stood firmly on his
account, insisting that the being was a witch that could fly and
attacked him and his patrol car.
An extensive search was done around the area by the police units
trying to find any tracks or evidence of the mysterious female
being but nothing was found. The ambulance took officer Samaniego
to the Hospital Universitario for a medical evaluation and he
remained there all day.
The Secretary of Public Security of Guadalupe, Mr. Hamlet Castilla
Garcia, informed that several drug tests as well as other
examinations were conducted on officer Leonardo Samaniego to check
for any toxic substances in his body like alcohol or any kind of
drug. All tests were negative.
Also, Dr. Edelmiro Perez Rodriguez who is coordinator of medical
services in Hospital Universitario informed that after several
psychiatric and psychological examinations they found officer
Leonardo Samaniego mentally and physically healthy.
A police officer from Santa Catarina, N.L., Mr. Jorge Contreras,
declared that he and two more policemen from the Regia Police saw
EXACTLY the same flying being that officer Samaniego saw, but three
days before. They saw it flying and decided not to say anything -
until they heard about this case.
Norma Alicia Herrera who lives in Colonia La Playa declared in a tv
interview that she and her brother saw also the being flying at
daytime and that it looked weird. She said that her brother was so
stunned by the sighting that he was sick for almost a week
afterwards.
A neighbor in that sector also videotaped, several days before, a
strange flying humanoid being and gave the video to the tv station.
The footage was released the same day during the newscast of
channel 34 and later on channel 2 causing even more commotion among
the people.
The story was also released by major newspapers like El Norte and
Milenio. The same Friday, January 16, special surveillance units
were stationed where the incident took place and streets
surrounding as an operative to protect the neighbors in case an
eventual new attack. At the same time, an investigation was
initiated by the Public Security Corporation in Guadalupe. Police
officer Leonardo Samaniego remained in seclusion receiving his
treatment for the next two days when he was interviewed again on
tv, maintaining his story in every detail.
