My father and I were heading north on AL highway 5 coming back from a hunting trip. Dad was on the phone with my uncle when both saw what appeared to be a bright light falling at an angle toward the road ahead of us. It seemed as if suddenly a large bright streetlight appeared out of nowhere and was falling down. The light then turned a yellowish green color and took off into the horizon leaving no trail of light. My dad told my uncle we just saw a UFO and I immediately texted my wife in Tuscaloosa. She later replied that her friend saw a green object at the same time 60 or more miles away. She saw it to the north east. I texted my wife at 6:30 and she was on the phone with her friend at 6:27 got disconnected at the time she experienced the event. Her friend called right back at 6:29. I got these times from my wife's cell and my own. My entire sighting lasted 2-3 seconds.
