Dudley Dorito UFO (October 2008)

📍 Location

📝 Description

The Dudley Dorito refers to a long-running sequence of triangular/arrowhead-shaped UFO sightings in the Black Country, West Midlands, UK, first widely reported in 2007. A photograph of the Dorito was reportedly published in October 2008 and described by some outlets as evidence of alien life. In November 2025, a single witness in the Dudley area near Merry Hill Shopping Centre (near Thorns Road, Brierley Hill) reported a new sighting of a large, silent craft described as a rectangular, black object with lights at its corners, captured in photos shared online. The witness stated there was no air traffic in the area at the time after consulting Flight Scanner. As with prior reports, there is no official verification or government confirmation; the 2025 event aligns with the ongoing, unconfirmed local UFO phenomena spanning 2007–2011 and continuing sporadically thereafter.
