山东男子电死外星人系造假：橡胶制成 造价120元

A Shandong man who admitted his claim to have killed an alien and stored it in a freezer was a hoax was arrested after his story went viral on Chinese social media.

一位来自山东省的男性声称自己杀死了一位外星人，并把它存放在冰柜里。该故事在中国的社交媒体上迅速走红。然而这位男子亲口承认外星人为仿造，当地警方已将其拘留。

Binzhou resident Li was sentenced to five days in detention for creating false reports and disturbing public order after admitting to police that he had engineered a hoax as a publicity stunt on June 10, according to China Radio International.

根据中国国际广播的报道，6月10日，这位来自山东省滨州市的居民李某向警方承认，所谓外星人其实是造假，只为制造轰动效应引起关注。李某也因为造谣和扰乱公共秩序被拘留了5天。

Initially, the farmer had posted his close encounter on a Chinese website, together with a shaggy dog story about how he had captured the alien while setting traps for rabbits.

最初，这个农民在某网站上贴出了他如何近距离接触外星人的事迹，同时还写了自己如何在设置捕兔器陷阱时抓到外星人的经过，故事非常冗长杂乱。

"I was setting an electric trap for rabbits by the Yellow river when I saw a bright light," he said. "Above my bike, a UFO was floating. One by one, five aliens came down, but one of them stumbled into one of my rabbit traps and was electrocuted. The others went back into their ship and flew away."

“当时我在黄河边设置电动捕兔器陷阱，然后我就看到了一道亮光，”他说。“在我自行车的上方，一个UFO漂浮着。五个外星人一个接一个地下来，但他们其中一个失足跌入我的捕兔器，并被电死了。其他人回到飞船飞走了。”

After Li uploaded photos of the "dead alien" online, his encounter was instantly questioned and ridiculed by thousands of net users. Many others seemed simply entertained by Li’s outrageous story and "amateur" alien photos.

李某将“外星人尸体”的照片上传网络后，他的经历立即引来众多网友的质疑和嘲笑。其他很多网友则觉得李某的故事和非常“业余”的外星人照片实在是太欢乐了。

Shandong police said on Monday that Li had admitted his story was a hoax after he was called in for an investigation. Li had spent 120 yuan to buy the rubber and other materials from local farmers to make the alien, said police.

山东警方在本周一表示，在警方对李某进行传讯后，他承认自己的故事是造假。据悉，李某是花了120元从当地农民手里买下了橡胶和其他材料做成的外星人。

"After the police interrogated me, I confessed I was a fan of UFOs and the alien was a fake. I just wanted other people to believe that aliens existed," he told the Shandong Evening News.

“在警察审讯我之后，我承认我是个UFO爱好者，外星人是假的。我只是想让其他人相信外星人的存在。”他对山东晚间资讯这样表示。
