IT would seem that aliens gave Devon a wide berth last year as no sightings were reported to Devon and Cornwall Police, a Freedom of Information (FOI) request has shown.

Asked to divulge information in relation to sightings of unidentified flying objects, unidentified anomalous phenomenon, unmanned aerial vehicles and unidentified submerged objects, the force said there had been no reported sightings, the FOI shows.

The data, calculated between January 1 2024 and December 31, 2024, did return some results, however, as the request mentioned drones.

Returned incidents were manually reviewed for relevance, with the majority related to anti-social behaviour involving drones, drones being flown in restricted air space, for example.

Others involved individuals with mental health issues.

As such, neither were included in the results.
