The buoys look fairly close together. it is obviously a well known dumping spot for there to be 32 cars in such close proximity, especially if it turns out the searcher's guess of 30-40 years span for the missing vehicles found is accurate.

A Texas woman was attacked by a hawk and a snake at the same time after the bird - which eats snakes - accidentally dropped the wriggling serpent on her.
Peggy Jones, 64, was mowing her lawn last month when a passing hawk dropped a snake on her before swooping down to angrily try to reclaim its meal.
The snake wrapped itself around her arm and began striking her face as the bird sunk its talons deep into her flesh.
The terrifying ordeal left her with cuts and bruising to her arm and face.
The bizarre incident took place on 25 July in the town of Silsbee, Texas, near the Louisiana border.
It began after a snake suddenly fell out of the sky and landed on her. Before she could remove it, the hawk attack began.

Blimey - I wonder how fast he’d have to be going to achieve that.

the car likely hit the second floor because of a culvert - a tunnel that carries a stream under a road or railway - on the left side of the house.

The driver "went into the culvert and propelled into the air and landed on the second floor",

Terrified villagers in a rural Peruvian district have claimed they have come under attack by 7ft-tall aliens they have dubbed Los Pelacaras, or The Face Peelers.

This incident does have news reporting from Peru, but it's in Spanish and unfortunately my Spanish isn't good enough. While the reported creatures are claimed to float in the air, there is no report of a UFO per se.

Google translate has reporting that it's not aliens, it's illegal miners.

Here are a few Spanish-language links, I haven't read through them all yet, but I do see suggestions that the villagers were attacked by illegal miners, although as far as I know, miners don't float in the air. I'll translate when I get a few minutes.
