Two Harbors: 'Nope, No Aliens Here'


UPN Show Centers Alien Abduction Believers on North Shore County



TWO HARBORS, Minn. Posted 6:06 a.m. January 22, 1998  -- It's normally
not the type of phone inquiry one imagines the Lake County, Minnesota
Sheriff's office would be responding to in droves.

Hello?

Yes, sir ... Uh, huh ... Yep ... OK ... Uhhhhh ... Nope. No, sir. No
there is no Agent Mulder working here ... Uh, no ... No, we haven't
seen any flying saucers around here either ... No, nope we haven't
gotten calls from anyone named McPherson about any kind of alien
kidnapping ...

The Lake County sheriff reports out of his Two Harbors office that he
wants everyone to know there has been no alien abduction while he's
been on the job, reports The Associated Press.

Sheriff Andy Haugan says his office phone line has been ringing
incessantly since the upstart UPN television network broadcast a show
called "Alien Abduction: Incident in Lake County" Tuesday evening.

The show broadcast on UPN stations across the country purported to show
"actual aliens" abducting a McPherson family from Lake County along
Minnesota's north shore, writes the wire service.

A sheriff's dispatcher told the AP that calls have been coming mainly
from "UFO nuts" and reporters calling to find out if the video is real.

It's not, he said.

Haugan added that no one named McPherson has lived in the county since
1994.

No word on exactly how that last McPherson left town, though ...
