7-year-old Martin Rodriguez was playing hide-and-seek outside with a group of friends. Martin and Fernando Carabelos ran to an old paddock near the N-122 motorway in search of a place to hide. 

The boys walked together along the wall of the abandoned paddock. This place was known as a hideout for villains and vagabonds, and it was getting dark, so young Martin did his usual thing before entering it himself: he picked up a large rock from the ground and threw it over the wall, hoping it would scare away any intruders. 

This time, however, the rock struck something completely unexpected, causing a metallic sound that the boys did not recognize at all. Martin cautiously entered the pen to see what was there. 

Next to the wall, as if hidden, he saw a strange metal object in the shape of an inverted tear or pear, leaning on three thick legs. 

Height 2.80 meters and width about 1.95, the car had three round Windows through which pink and blue light shone. In the center was a closed door, divided into two parts, like some elevators. After a few moments, the object began to rise from the ground, and a thin beam of light came from it, directed at Martin. 

Fernando desperately tried to grab his friend and drag him away from the light, but to no avail. Martin froze in place, clutching his stomach. Fernando ran out of the paddock in a panic, shouting to his friends to come and help, but in the meantime, Martin began to lose consciousness and fall on his back. 

The last thing he could remember was watching the pear-shaped artifact rise higher into the sky, its chassis retracting into its body as it moved. 

They found Martin in a semi-conscious state, unable to speak, and his skin appeared to have turned yellow. His pupils were completely dilated. 

While the boy was being cared for by a doctor, his father and a friend went to the site where the object was seen and found that the ground was burned. The soil smelled strongly of sulfur. 

At a hospital in Valladolid, Martin had symptoms at the time, including vision loss and vomiting, and soon fell into a coma. The seven-year-old boy had to undergo a total of fourteen surgical operations, thirteen of which included opening the skull by trepanation.

Original news

Location. Tordesillas, Valladolid, Spain
Date: October 1 1977
Time: evening
7-year old Martin Rodriguez was playing hide and seek in the street with a group of friends. Martin and Fernando Carabelos ran towards an old corral near the N-122 motorway in search for a place to hide. The boys walked together alongside the wall of the deserted corral. The place was known for being a refuge for villains and vagabonds and it was getting dark, so young Martin did his usual thing before entering it himself: he took a large stone from the ground and hurled it over the wall, hoping that this would frighten off any intruders. On this occasion, however the stone hit something entirely unexpected, producing a metallic noise that the boys did not recognize at all. Martin walked gingerly into the corral to see what was there. Next to the wall, as if concealed, he saw a strange metal object in the shape of an inverted tear or pear, resting on three thick legs. 2.80 meters tall by around 1.95 wide, the machine had three circular windows through which pink and blue lights were emitted. In the center there was a closed door, divided in two like those of some lifts. After a few moments the object began to rise from the ground and a fine beam of light came from it, aimed at Martin. Fernando tried desperately to grab his friend and drag him away from the light but to no avail. Martin was frozen to the spot, clutching his belly. Fernando ran out of the corral in a panic, shouting to their other friends to come quickly and help, but meanwhile Martin was beginning to lose consciousness and fall backwards. The last thing he could remember was watching the pear-shaped artifact rise higher into the sky, its landing gear retracting into its body as it went. They found Martin semi-conscious, he could not speak, and his skin seemed to have turned yellow. His pupils were completely dilated. While a doctor was attending to the boy, his father and a friend went to the place where the object had been seen and found the earth burnt. The soil gave off strong sulfur like smell. In a hospital at Valladolid Martin’s symptoms at that time included loss of vision and vomiting, and soon entered into a coma. A total of fourteen life or death surgical operations had to be carried out on the seven-year-old boy, thirteen of which involved opening his skull through a process of trepanation. (I though I should include this incredible encounter).
