UFO Casebook is reporting that military personnel have arrested a BBC film crew at the secret Area 51 military base in Nevada. The 12-member crew were trying to sneak onto the base during the filming of a documentary, UFO: Conspiracy Road Trip.
“They drove to Rachel, the nearest town to Area 51, then to the “Black Gate” of the base known as “Rachel Gate NT TR Boundary North,” where they stopped their bus about 50 meters from the security perimeter and began filming.”
The Daily Mail explained what happened next:
“There was no one around, no guards, no vehicles – nothing. We filmed for approximately 30 minutes and tried to call the guards but there was no one there and no sign of them. So we all decided to walk past the barriers onto the restricted area past the security huts and basically onto Area 51. Nothing happened…
After they had filmed for another 30 minutes, one of the members of the crew said she saw guards eating dinner and watching TV in one of the security huts. The guards apparently saw them but did nothing. But when a crew member walked to the hut door and knocked, armed guards rushed and forced the crew members to lay on their faces at gunpoint.”
The intruders were told the incident was so serious that Washington had to call London to explain that twelve Brits had been arrested for breaching security at one of America’s most top-secret military bases. BBC said no evidence of extraterrestrial life was discovered in their exciting trek.
