A large smoke like pillar of light appeared right before six AM, it lit up the entire area for about 10-15 seconds, and then vanished.I was driving from my town of Corning, Arkansas, towards Pocahontas, Arkansas, at about between 5:30-5:45AM. I was heading towards work and just ahead of me, suddenly appeared a smoke-like pillar of light! I'm not sure how far away exactly it was, but it was probably about the width of a 4 way road. It appeared so bright that the entire countryside around it was semi-visible when before then it wasn't since it was so early in the morning and dark! I watched it for about ten seconds, then as I grabbed my phone to take a picture it vanished! Never re-appearing though I kept my eye out for it. It was really eerie!((NUFORC Note: We spoke with the witness via telephone, and she sounded to us to be quite sober-minded and sincere. PD))
