Three men witness UFO shoot beam to ground, near El Paso, Texas

Report from MUFON:

Date of event: June 13, 2010
Location of event: El Paso, Texas

"It was an ordinary Sunday night in El Paso, Texas, around 9:15 PM. My father, my brother, and I were driving back home, heading west. We were driving in the neighborhood area near home when my father noticed a bright light in the sky, and we all focused in on it.

It was moving very rapidly through the sky, way faster than any airplane or even jet could go, and covered the whole sky from north to south in just a couple of seconds. As we watched, it began to get bright, then dim, much like pulsating I guess you could say.

Then it began to hover toward the southwest area of town. As we watched trying not to lose sight of it, a green beam came from the bottom of it. I noticed at the bottom of it where the beam was, the object appeared to be pointed more like a diamond. The object only had the beam out for about 3 seconds at the most, and then just disappeared instantly.

As we began to search for it, it then appeared toward the west where it originally appeared. Then it raced across the sky to the north where it disappeared for good. As we arrived at some stop lights, we noticed a border patrol helicopter that was unlit and following the path where the object seemed to fly through.

We then raced home to try to see if we could get the object on video or binoculars. Unfortunately, there was no more activity in the sky, but we all tried to believe what we just saw.

We knew for sure it wasn't a airplane, jet, helicopter, or possibly some experiment from Ft. Bliss, which is the army base here. I guess you could say this whole experience was like being in "War of the Worlds."
