UFO Crash in Kerry?

Jesus Christ, there's a lot of mad news on the go at the 'mo.

First it was lake monsters, now it's UFOs. Kerry is lapping up the weirdness this summer.

According to an article in The Irish Independent, the Irish coastguard has called off a search for a crashed aircraft. There were eyewitnesses to the apparent crash, but no planes have been report missing.

A search and rescue operation was launched yesterday evening (August 25th) at around 18:30, after a man reported seeing ' an aircraft swooping low
out of the sun with smoke and flames trailing from it' in the sky near between Lispole and Dingle.
