A Colorado motorist captured footage of a peculiar pillar-like UFO that zipped across the horizon. The odd sighting reportedly occurred on June 4th as the unnamed witness was driving home from his mother's house in Colorado Springs. According to the mystified motorist, they were stopped at a traffic light when the "incredibly shocking" aerial anomaly caught their eye and they quickly began filming the puzzling object as it cruised across the sky.

Indicating that the UFO was approximately a mile away from where they were, the witness marveled that it appeared "very large to my eyes," estimating that it measured a staggering three to six stories tall. As for what the puzzling pillar could have been, setting aside the extraterrestrial hypothesis, some have suggested it may be some kind of clandestine or experimental drone. More skeptical viewers, however, argue that the UFO was simply an errant balloon. What do you make of the strange footage? Weigh in with your thoughts at the C2C Facebook page.
