Clearly a made-up story - I mean, a policeman in Boston at night, what are the chances of that!  ;D

The truth is out there.

From the National Archives:

Quote
A UFO sighted by Boston and Skegness Police captured on film and then spotted by a ship's crew in the North Sea. Simultaneously, an unidentified blip was picked up on radar over Boston. A detailed investigation followed, which identified some of the lights as the planet Venus rising and the blip on the radar as 'a permanent echo' made by a tall church spire.
