From the silly, to the sinister and beyond.
Aliens and UFO’s have been part of human lore and legend throughout history, but this past weekend those legends came to life for several valley residents and part, they say, of their very real here and now.
“There’s been reports left and right coming out of the central San Joaquin Valley,” declares Jeffrey Gonzalez.
We introduced you to Gonzalez last Monday. AT&T technician by day, Gonzalez is the founder of the Sanger Paranormal Society and part-time investigator for “MUFON” a civilian UFO research organization on his own time. Gonzalez contacted us about one Clovis family’s reported, harrowing experience with what they described as “a cigar-shaped “UFO” last Friday night, July 2nd.
“They saw something that night and it scared them really bad.” Badly enough, says Gonzalez, to send the father running out into the night in his underwear to try and get his family to safety.
“He said, Jeff. it wasn’t an airplane, it wasn’t a helicopter it wasn’t making any type of noise it didn’t have engines on it nothing and it was headed right for their house.”
Meanwhile, someone else posted video to YouTube of what they called a UFO over Fresno from that same night, and Gonzalez himself videotaped mysterious white vans that he says he saw parked at the family’s house the next day.
So we set out with Gonzalez Monday to canvas the neighborhood for other possible witnesses… but at the time we could find no one. Since Monday, however, several more reports have filtered in from witnesses who say, they saw something too, Gonzalez says.
“There’s a lot of crazy stuff happening here in Fresno.”
Gonzalez also says the family we mentioned does not want to talk about their experience to the media, but since airing our report Monday, several people have called the KMPH Fox 26 newsroom saying they too saw something in the sky this past weekend that they cannot explain.
So what we would now like to know is, who else thinks they may have seen something strange or, a “UFO” in the skies over the valley this past weekend?
If you did, let us know.

UFO sighting in north hollywood, ca 7/6/10<br />while on patrol at 2:30 am I came face to face with a UFO within a hundred feet, very low. It was a large red ball of light, with something attached to the back of it. I was petrified and grabbed the nearest tree to try to hide behind it. Looking with sheer horror, my mind was racing with all the possibilities that only intensified as I noticed it
I live in Dunlap Ca, about 30 miles from Fresno at the base of Kings Canyon. I went outside @ 5am this morning for a walk and I saw what appeared to be 3 lights in a triangle formation above the Fresno area. I watched them til it got too light. I also saw an odd "cigar-shaped" object, kind of low in the sky going south which had an orangish color....that could have been a plane with the
