Full Report Text:
Green ball of light falling from the sky(completely vertically down) Between the time of 11:55 of 10-3-2012 and 12:05 of 10-4-2012, a green ball of light was falling vertically. A friend was driving and i was riding passenger in the front. I had the window rolled down and looked to my right, when i saw this big green ball of light falling straight down.
I didn't think it was a meteor or a comet, due to the light not having a tail or traveling semi-horizontally. It lasted about 5 to 10 seconds dropping behind trees and apartment complexes 2 to 3 stories high. It looked similar to roman candle flare but bigger and consistent and did not fade out, like a fire cracker would.
It was much too high in the air to be from a fire cracker. Within 30 seconds after, a helicopter came flying from the south as we were pulling into my neighborhood. It circled my neighborhood about and passed my street, about 2 more streets down flying pretty low.
Then i saw it go straight to the neighborhood where I saw the green ball of light fall. Then i! t left. I contacted the local news the next afternoon to inquire if anyone has reported anything.
It's been 3 days and I haven't gotten a response.
Full Report Text:
I saw a ufo that was hovering from the sky, then dropped from the sky to the ground. I was walking down the street talking with some friends and i decide to look up to the stars which is something i normally do when im outside. i saw a circle/oval shape that seemed larger than the other stars and i mentioned it to my friends.
when i pointed it out the circle then started to come down from the sky to the ground. I could say that the drop looked 100% similar to when the ufo drops in the video of "Jerusalem UFO" it had the same pace and straightness of when hovering from the sky to the ground. Many ufo sightings have been happening in my area according to wallpostings i see on facebook ((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information.
