Three members of an El Paso, Texas, family driving near their home at 9:15 p.m. on June 13, 2010, watched a fast moving bright light pulsing in and out that projected a green beam of light to the ground surface, according to testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.
The beam of light was turned on for about three seconds, and then the entire object disappeared.
"As we watched trying not to lose sight of it a green beam began to beam at the bottom of it," the reporting witness stated.
"I noticed at the bottom of it where the beam was the object appeared to be pointed more like a diamond. The object only had the beam out for about 3 seconds at the most and then just disappeared instantly."
The object was briefly spotted again where it was originally seen in the sky, but then it moved north and disappeared. The witnesses then noticed an unlit border patrol helicopter in the same area.
"As we arrived at some stop lights we noticed a border patrol helicopter that was unlit and following the path where the object seemed to fly through."
