National UFO Reporting Center Sighting Report
Occurred : 9/14/2011 19:45 (Entered as : 09/14/11 19:45) Reported: 9/15/2011 10:53:09 PM 22:53 Posted: 10/10/2011 Location: Pahrump, NV Shape: Unknown Duration: 30-45 seconds
Green light in the sky I am a law enforcement dispatcher. We had 2 simultaneous reports of a green light moving slow across the sky (west to east) and the first reporting party said they were sure the object (whatever it was) came down. And they were in a panic. I asked if they thought it could be a meteor and they said no, it was moving too slow. We didn't take the report too seriously until one of our deputies being dispatched to the area said he saw it too. All of them said it was "green". Although the deputies could find nothing in the area, obviously something was in the sky! Our main concern was a possible aircraft down, but again, nothing was found. Please do not publish my name as my employer might not be too pleased, and since this is a very small town, it would not be too hard to figure out who reported it!
