Mysterious UFO Crashes Into the Ottawa River Monday Night
Dozens of residents of Canada’s capital city, Ottawa Ontario and nearby Gatineau, Que., witnessed an object streak across the night sky at about 10pm local time Monday night and crash into the Ottawa River with a “thunderous boom.”
The object had lights on it and appeared to change course several times, like a small plane struggling to stay airborn, before it hit the water.
It was such a sight that emergency rescue and search crews in the area sprung into action and began searching the area using sophisticated sonars and underwater cameras to try and figure out what the object was. Even helicopters from the Canadian Forces Base (CFB) in nearby Trenton took part. On Tuesday at 1:30pm, they discovered an object about 9 meters (30 feet) below the surface, but because of currents and nearby rapids, sending divers down would be extremely dangerous since they would be instantly swept away by the currents.
The mystery? Authorities and residents have no idea what this object laying at the bottom of the river is. There are no planes missing from the area, no other aircraft like helicopters, etc. are missing. There is no derbis, no oil slick and even space agencies that were contacted said nothing disappeared from orbit.
On Tuesday afternoon, Ottawa police Const. Alain Boucher said of the object they found on the riverbed:
“The size and the shape doesn’t lead us to believe it’s any piece of an airplane or fuselage or anything like that. It could be a rock, it could be a bunch of logs stuck together, it’s hard to say. No one has come forward with any kind of videos or anything like that at this time. None of the people actually reported seeing a plane go down at the same time.”
But the fact still remains – something fell into the Ottawa River Monday night that prompted a massive co-ordinated search by local authorities and the Canadian Military. They found an object below the surface and don’t know exactly what it is.
It truly is a UFO mystery at this point.

Well, an object piloted by aliens could be 30 feel below water, doesn't anyone have any answeres? No one has the technology to directly see 30 feet under water? Cmon people, get out there and look for yourselves before the military takes it away.

NORAD Keep track of all foriegn objects coming in and out off space. I find it hard to believe that we do not have the technology to know what crash landed in the Ottawa River Monday Night. If people want to know for them selves you have to do it yourself and stop letting “Big Brother” take over the investigation:) Let the People Decide!

Hmm since their is a current couldnt they have a boat go against current and a diver with a 120 foot rope attached to him? Honestly can they not think?

LMFAO!!!!!
“On Tuesday at 1:30pm, they discovered an object about 9 meters (30 feet) below the surface, but because of currents and nearby rapids, sending divers down would be extremely dangerous since they would be instantly swept away by the currents.”
You might as well let the US Government take over this instant…Obviously there's going to be logs or a rock down there now…

Check on eBay for Under Water Video Cameras .. they're good to 100 ft (comes with cable) .. it's not rocket-science CANADA .. they're about a dime a dozen ..it's just a waterproof surveillance camera — why are we Canadians still in the pre-Cambrian stone-age when it comes to hiting the technology up-grade button?? Conspiracy of keeping us dumb and dumber. Wake up and smell the cover-up Canada. Somebody crack the wallet and open a Paypal account – 75 bucks gets an U/W video camera delivered to your door. Mount it on the end of a swimming pool cleaning pole and … and .. and get abducted

“it could be a bunch of logs stuck together”
surely it’s harder to explain why a bunch of logs would be flying about before falling into the river that any alien haha
