| Name | Cheri M |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | Car in on I 8 heading east in the mountain driving through Telegraph Pass, the light that it emitted was extremely bright. I caught a glimpse of it as it passed on the south side of the freeway and heading east. Not sure how significant, but I saw a helicopter on the sky in the same vicinity possibly border patrol but looked military. I do hance family in Wellton (where we were headed) and they had a clearer view of its trajectory. I can only speculate that it ended up in mexico, but considering we are so closethere is a good possibility. Wellton, AZ 85356 United States |
