Background
At 7:45 p.m. near Isola, Spezia, Italy, Amerigo (or Americo) Lorenzini saw a cigar-shaped object land and three small creatures wearing diving suits emerge. They walked over to his rabbit cages and stared at the animals, talking in a strange language. He ran inside to grab his gun and tried to pull the trigger as they were taking some rabbits to the object, but he became paralyzed. The object took off, leaving a bright trail. The APRO Bulletin reported the case on November 15, 1954. The account follows the entry in George M. Eberhart's chronology UFOs and Intelligence (CUFOS) and the sources cited there; it is not an independent determination by From Beyond Space.
