    It's questionable whether this is 'paranormal', but anyhow..

    The news of this was reported a couple of days back, but they seem to have released video now.

    Has visual and IR as you might expect from a police helicopter camera. Here's the story:

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/2160814/Police-chase-UFO-over-Cardiff.html
    A police helicopter crew gave chase to a UFO after it almost collided with their aircraft near a military base.

    The pilot was forced to bank sharply to avoid being hit by the mystery aircraft as the helicopter was returning to the Ministry of Defence base of St Athan, near Cardiff.

    The three crew, who described the UFO as 'flying saucer-shaped', then gave chase, getting as far as the North Devon coast before they ran low on fuel, it was reported.
    A spokesman for South Wales Police said: "We can confirm the Air Support Unit sighted an unusual aircraft. This was reported to the relevant authorities for their investigation."

    It was reported that the aircraft closed in at great speed, aiming straight for the helicopter which swerved sharply.

    "They are convinced it was a UFO. It sounds far-fetched, but they know what they saw."

    Seems strange. You'd think the police would perhaps know about any weird craft that might be coming out of that military base, or indeed, the people in charge of that craft would know better than to be flying it around a police helicopter :p
