A young man's creative marriage proposal apparently triggered several UFO reports in a small town in Germany.

Bavarian police say several people called Wednesday night to alert them to strange lights floating above the sleepy town of Plattling.

It turns out the lights were 50 paper lanterns sent aloft by a 29-year-old man proposing marriage to his girlfriend.

Neither the man nor the 27-year-old woman were identified.

However, police report that the woman did say "Yes."
