Unidentified Object In Kensington (Photo : Facebook/Kensington Police)
Residents of Kingston in Britain saw on Sunday night an unknown object in the middle of a road in Kingston burn. Someone called 999 and the Emergency Response Team as well as the London Fire Brigade arrived.
What was burning baffled the officers who initially thought the object was a UFO, reports the Telegraph. The officers said the item looked like a crash-landed UFO which was round with metal skeletal parts.
Upon further investigation, probers suggested the burning thing could be an upturned pizza oven. However, the West London police are still baffled how it landed on the middle of the road. One possibility is that it was being transported and fell from a delivery vehicle.
The object elicited a lot of comments from residents after the Kingston Police posted the images on its Facebook page.
Beckie Shorten thinks it's a planned hoax to promote "Star Wars: The Force Awakens." Jake Budd says it looks like from Tolworth Roundabout, while Josh Gilliott believes it fell from a vehicle because it was poorly secured.
Joshe Weide also thinks it fell off a truck but believes it is an art piece that some thugs burned. However, Cory Pontinen confirms it is a California stone pizza oven, while Michael Badger says it is an old boiler. His explanation why it is in the middle of the road is that "It may have been removed from a(n) house then deliberately overpressured with the pressure valve disabled and sent sky high which would make sense to why it is in the middle of the road."
Sonya Day suggests it could be a stolen item from the Kingston market place. Amanda Hames thinks it's a pizza oven used by someone who was selling pizzas by the roadside. Natalija Harbinson also agrees it is a pizza oven possibly stolen from a restaurant or a residential garden.
For humor, many still say it is a UFO. Leslie Ian Jones says a Google search shows a lot of pizza ovens have mosaic designs. Then she adds, "Amazing those Martians still use them."
