Witnesses in Birmingham, Alabama report seeing UFO on Dec. 28

UFO photographed by witness in Birmingham on Dec. 28.

Today marks the third Thursday of the month, so this week I’m giving you an update on UFO reports in Alabama from the previous month, courtesy of the Mutual UFO Network. A search for UFO reports in Alabama between Dec. 1 and Dec. 31, 2018 on MUFON’s website, www.mufon.com, resulted in only one report from within our state during that time.

That incident took place on Mon., Dec. 28, around 11:20 p.m. in Birmingham. The witness in this case said that he and a passenger were sitting at a stop light on U.S. Highway 280, facing south and waiting for the light to turn green, when he saw a different light in the distance. He’d never seen this light before and said that it was a “bright white” color.

“I did not know what to think at first, but I finally turned at the light, and it was still in the same spot hovering so I drove up to it,” the witness said. “I got really close to it. It still had not moved until I think it may have noticed me sitting there trying to figure out what it was.”

The light began to move straight toward the witness, and he noticed that it was triangle-shaped with three white lights and one red light near its middle.

“I first thought it was an airplane, but as it got closer, I realized it was not an airplane,” the witness said. “I could not describe what it was.”

The witness noted that the object was smaller than an airplane but bigger than a drone.

“Airplanes make noise and this did not,” the witness said. “It was so strange. I was in shock because I knew it was something I had never seen before. I was not scared but more so interested because I could not figure out what it was.”

The witness watched as the object continued on its course and completely disappeared. During this time, men in a garbage truck pulled over to look at it as well, but only saw it for a short amount of time. The witness said that conditions were clear that night, but some fog was starting to form in some areas.

The witness noted that he did capture video footage of the object on his iPhone X and that footage showed two UFOs moving from left to right at high speed. Close examination of the footage also showed two UFOs near the larger UFO. He said that the objects appeared to be surrounded by some type of disturbance or haze, as if they were surrounded by some type of force field or energy field.

Before closing out this week, I just want to put it out there again that I would be very interested to hear from anyone who has witnessed a UFO, especially in Conecuh County. I think a lot of other people would be interested in hearing your story too, and I’m willing to accept your report anonymously.
