Description (In Witness's Own Words):  I was in a car with two friends it was a clear day. I was in the back of my boyfriend's car and my friend was at the front. We were stationary in traffic on waterloo bridge, suddenly to the right of the front of the car a massive flying saucer appeared to drop from the sky at an angle, it was classic saucer shape metallic silver with portholes all around it and had a ultra violet blue light coming from the underside, the portholes appeared to glow so I assumed there were lights on inside some of the portholes were darker than others, which made me think we were being watched. It was rush hour and hundreds of people were crossing the bridge some people had stopped and were pointing up at the craft others walked on slowly as though nothing were happening! it was as though time had stood still for most but a few moved although slowly. Suddenly the craft appeared to disappear but when I looked into the very far distance I could see it hovering. I turned to my boyfriend amazed and said "did you see that" he asked me "what." I couldn't believe he hadn't seen it as he was in the best position. I asked my friend if she had seen it, she looked scared and answered yes. A car that was in front of us had a child on the back seat and he was jumping about smiling and pointing at us. I looked at my friend and said "he saw it too." My friend and I have only discussed this event once since this date, she became a church goer after this event.

Investigator's Notes. This case appears to be one of the classics:  A daytime sighting by several witnesses of a close-up flying saucer.  I suspect that others had likely reported this sighting given that it occurred during rush hour on a busy highway.  Possibly some articles could have been written in the local media, but they would be difficult to locate. Based on observations and the drawing that the witness supplied, this case falls in the "unidentified" category.
