On November 9, 1979, Robert Taylor, a forestry worker, parked his truck and walked his dog through a path to a newly planted forest area north of the hill known as Dechmont Law.

It's reported that he happened upon a flying dome hovering above the forest floor. The dome sent out two smaller spheres that dragged him to the larger dome. The last thing Taylor remembered was a strange choking smell that overpowered him. He came round sometime later and the spheres were gone. Taylor made it back to his truck, but was unable to start the vehicle and had to walk home. 

When he arrived home with torn, disheveled clothes and various cuts, Taylor's wife called the local doctor and the police. The police took him back to the scene of the incident, where they found unusual marks that looked like ladders and others that Taylor claimed were made by the spheres. 

The police treated the incident as an assault and conducted a criminal investigation. It's the only UFO sighting in the United Kingdom that has ever been classified as a criminal investigation. Known as "The Livingston Incident" it has sparked interest all over the world and has been featured on TV.
