Bright green light suddenly appeared in the middle of the sky and shot straight downward as fast as a shooting star

While driving home from work, a bright green light (like a spot light) suddenly appeared in the middle of the sky and shot straight downward as fast as a shooting star. About 10 minutes later, two helicopters were spotted in the sky with their search lights on heading in the direction of where the green light had fallen. Fifteen minutes after that, another helicopter was spotted heading in the same direction making it a total of three helicopters searching for whatever had fallen from the sky.
