News from all over - Yuma
On Sunday, just a few weeks shy of the 29th anniversary of that night in 1978, Big Tim Cullen recalled when the lights of a UFO rose over the grassy hills and settled alongside his car. He says he got a good look. "It was 100 foot long, 20 foot wide and about 10 foot high." And then it was gone.
Cullen leaned back in the chair and talked of the night the spaceship came down. It hovered along Colorado 59 between Yuma and the smaller town of Joes, Colorado, he says. And even though he doesn't remember this part, Cullen said the aliens took him that night and implanted a strange metal chip in his left wrist - a chip he wouldn't find until 1998.
Cullen isn't alone, of course. Thousands claim they've been abducted by aliens. Hundreds of thousands say they've seen UFOs. Heck, just a few weeks ago a well-respected former Arizona governor said he saw a UFO hovering over Phoenix while he was in office.
"When I saw it, I said, 'this is definitely a UFO,"' ex-Gov. Fife Symington said of the 1997 event. "It was absolutely breathtaking."
And another question: How come it took Cullen 20 years to discover the freaky alien implant in his left wrist? The answer: it took him that long to whack his left thumb with a hammer.
Cullen, 55, stood up Sunday morning and disappeared into a back room of the house where he and his wife have lived for nearly three decades. He came back with an X-ray and held it against the living room window. The images, taken at a Yuma medical clinic, clearly showed a small spot in the wrist, a white triangular image lodged in the tissue above the bones.
Cullen didn't say a word. Not that he's shy about this. He's been featured on lots of UFO-type websites and even on a Learning Channel show called "101 Things Removed From the Human Body."
But sometimes, he doesn't know what to say. Or what to think. "It's all so strange," he said quietly.
