Yesterday morning Rolf Aspaas discovered three large circles in the middle of one of his field.

- I have read that farmers in England have had whole crops destroyed by so-called UFOs. But it has turned out to be simple vandalism, and not at all the landing places of UFOs.

"The UFO-imprints in the field at Kaupang (small community east of Larvik) are large symmetrical circles with a diameter of thirty metres with corridors of laid crop joining each side to create a simple pictogram glyph.

- It’s difficult to say what motive people would have to do such a thing. These people hope for visitors to arrive from space, that is ok with me, but this is nothing else than pure vandalism, says Rolf Aspaas.

The vandals have probably trusted a pole into the ground in the middle of the field and attached a rope to it. According to Aspaas the same method has been used by keen UFO-vandals in England.
