A UFO sighting off the beach at Yarmouth has been reported to police this morning.

Officers were alerted to the possible presence of alien activity at about 7.15am.

It came from a couple walking their dog along a stretch between the Marina Centre and the Sealife Centre.

They said they had spotted a strange light over the sea moving erratically, which they tracked for some six or seven minutes.

A spokesman said: 'At the moment we are not attending but the log is being kept open in case of further calls.'
