UFO Lands In Virginia Back Yard
UFO Lands In Virginia Back Yard
Officers from six different agencies responded to a call about a device with a parachute that landed in Henry County.


Martinsville, VA -- It was a busy afternoon for safety officials in Henry County.

Officers from six different agencies responded to a call in Henry County about a "suspicious object" falling from the sky into a residential back yard.

The UFO, described as a small, orange-colored parachute attached to an electronics device, first hit the roof of a home on Augusta Street before coming to rest on the ground.

The homeowner, concerned that the object might be an explosive device, contacted police.

1. Conspiracy time!
Once officers from the Henry County Sheriff's Office, Martinsville Police Department, Virginia State Police, Henry County Department of Public Safety, Dyer Store Volunteer Fire Department and The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms arrived, the object didn't stay unidentified for long.

Authorities at the scene were able to determine the item was a device released by the National Weather Service, used for transmitting weather information.

2. So that's where my clothes dryer landed
And it wasn't a parachute, it was my laundry!!!

I suppose I shouldn't have launched it from my trebuchet.
