A Montana witness in Missoula County reports watching an "elongated, golden, diamond-shaped" object streaking across the sky about 12 a.m. on July 25, 2012, according to testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The witness was driving near his home when the object first came into view.
"I saw a bright object blaze out of the sky over the city, flying at about a 40 degree angle to the ground (southwest to northeast)," the witness stated. "It seemed to be falling toward the airport."
The object was only visible for about three seconds.
"It left a streak in the sky, but was no meteor. I saw the object and since I spent years driving a nightly (365 days a year route) between Missoula and Helena, I know what a meteor looks like.
