The witness saw the light beginning about 11:16 p.m. on January 12, 2016.
“I witnessed and recorded an orb of light flying westbound right at the bottom of the cloud line,” the witness stated.“It had a light that looked like a search light that was scanning back and forth.”
The witness stated that the object did not appear to have any lights that would indicate that it was a plane.
“In my video you can see at the end of me recording it, it started to move to the right and then upward and then it went into the clouds.”
