Gulf Breeze UFO incident
The Gulf Breeze UFO incident was a series of claimed UFO sightings in Gulf Breeze, Florida, United States, during late 1987 and early 1988 that began with a claim by local contractor Ed Walters of having taken photos of a UFO that were then published in the now-defunct community newspaper Gulf Breeze Sentinel. UFOlogists such as Bruce Maccabee believed the photographs were genuine; however, others strongly suspected them to be a hoax.
