Two Norwegian crop circle enthusiasts have told how armed police officers swooped on a farm at Allington near Devizes after they were confronted by an angry man with a gun. But the farmer whose land it was says the gunman was legitimately shooting pigeons.
Norwegian language school teachers Eva-Marie Brekkesto and Guro Parvanova, were visiting a crop circle on land at Manor Farm, Allington, on Monday afternoon when they heard shooting.
Mrs Brekkesto, who is the founder of the Norwegian Crop Circle research group, said: “When we came into the crop circle formation we heard a gunshot, quickly followed by one more. We were a bit shocked, it was quite close, then a man appeared shouting ‘ get out of the field, you are on private land’.”
They started to leave the field but Mrs Brekkesto, 52, went back to speak to the gunman to find out what the problem was.
She said: “I said ‘sorry, why are you shouting?’ I asked him if he was the farmer. He said no but had been hired by the farmer to prevent people from going into the crop circle.
The Norwegian ladies have visited Wiltshire for the last ten years viewing crop circles and are staying in a holiday cottage in Devizes.
