Essex Police record UFO sightings for aviation safety, not investigation, due to lack of jurisdiction.

Essex Police have logged multiple UFO reports over the past decade, documenting sightings of bright lights, metallic shapes, and fast-moving objects without sound, primarily to assess aviation safety risks. While some describe fireballs, hovering red lights, or parachute-like objects, police confirm these are not investigated as their origins fall outside law enforcement jurisdiction, despite public concern and unconfirmed sightings.
