On the afternoon of January 20, 1996, three young women in Varginha reported encountering a small, dark, V-headed creature in a vacant lot. Independent witnesses described a Brazilian Army operation transporting a similar entity, and a military police sergeant who participated in the alleged capture later died of an undiagnosed infection. The Brazilian Army formally denied a recovery operation; declassified portions of the Brazilian Air Force's file on the case were released in 2010.
