Authorities in Royston, a town in Hertfordshire, England, are investigating a strange incident that took place in the parking lot of Tesco, a shopping center there.

“We received a number of calls from citizens who were unable to access their vehicles in the Tesco car park (this is the name of the supermarket in question),” North Herts police commented via their Facebook account.

As usual, all kinds of theories have circulated on social networks: from a phenomenon related to the lunar cycle to an alien invasion.
