A motorist in Virginia nearly stopped in their tracks when they spotted a mystifying UFO moving across the sky. The peculiar sighting, submitted to the National UFO Reporting Center, occurred on Sunday morning as the witness was driving in the suburban community of Midlothian.

"I happened to notice a shiny object in the sky," they recalled, "at first briefly ignoring it, I quickly did a double-take and realized it did not appear to be an animal, aircraft, or anything else that I would commonly observe."

The movement of the UFO was particularly perplexing to the witness as it was unlike any "other airborne objects," such as planes, drones, or balloons, that they had previously seen.
