Author and UFO investigator Russ Kellett has written a book about his experiences

He says he saw a man wearing something resembling a 'space suit and helmet' in the back yard of the family home in Kensington Street.

A man has documented his encounters with 'aliens' over a period spanning five decades.UFO investigator Russ Kellett, 58, says his first strange encounter was when he was aged four and living in Girlington, Bradford.

He was walking in my garden - I could not believe it. I waved and he put his hand up. There was a silver object which I thought was a dustbin. He walked behind this silver object and the next thing it juddered and went up. I thought 'what the heck is this.

Mr Kellett, a former Bradford businessman now living in Filey, North Yorkshire, didn't tell anyone what he had seen but has now revealed all in a new book called 'Russell Kellet is E.T. Rider'.

He says the book is the story of his life and his encounters with 'alien craft' and abductions by aliens.

When he was about 12, he says there was another incident in which he 'lost' a number of hours while playing alone near a wooded area off Fairbank Road in Bradford.

He saw a 'light in the sky' and then everything went dark as strong winds began to shake the trees.

"It was really bizarre and a little bit frightening."
