A small village in South America has made headlines after finding an alien lying dead in a gutter two nights after locals believed they saw a UFO appear in the night sky
A 'real life alien' was found dead in a small town in South America - but the body has already mysteriously disappeared.
The strange incident happened in the small town of Huarina, La Paz, in Bolivia, and locals took pictures of the black, alien-like corpse lying dead on the ground.
Little is known about the town of Huarina, and the last time its population of 1,300 was counted was in 2001.
However, it has now hit the headlines thanks to a very mysterious encounter allegedly involving a UFO and a dead alien.
Local residents took images of the alleged deceased extraterrestrial lying in the gutter before it mysteriously disappeared earlier this month, much to their surprise.
It remains unclear whether a sneaky opportunist removed the 'alien corpse' or whether its alien pals beamed it onboard their 'UFO' before making an intergalactic getaway.
Our sister site Daily Star has published pictures of the alleged alien.
Two nights before the reported dead alien was found in the gutter, residents allegedly filmed an eerie green light in the night sky that they believed was an alien spacecraft.
They claimed that they then witnessed numerous figures running around the dark streets.
Villagers said the mysterious beings were very small and compared them to goblins.
Local resident Rita Marquez told local news outlets: “They were miniature beings, like those little people who appear to children.”
Another resident said: “The closer we got we saw that it was an alien.”
And UFO expert Juan Carlos Aliaga said: “They sent me photos of what it was. This being, curled up.
“There has been no way to investigate with more details, but it will make us notice that if that creature has died, perhaps a small cemetery of these beings will be found."
He added that the "residents know all about this" and said he would look into the matter.
The local authorities also got involved, reportedly asking villagers to not say too much about the alleged alien visit at this time.
