François Lippé

Police Officer

François Lippé was the first police officer to respond to the 1990 Montreal UFO Incident at the Place Bonaventure hotel. On the evening of November 7, 1990, Lippé arrived at the scene after a hotel guest reported a massive, silent object hovering over the rooftop pool.

Upon witnessing the craft, Lippé immediately contacted his superiors, leading to the arrival of Chief of Police Robert Masson. This incident is considered one of Canada's most credible UFO sightings, involving hundreds of witnesses and investigations by the RCMP, military, and NASA.
