Three days earlier, at about 2 a.m. on Sept. 21, a witness in Mount Laurel claimed they saw an alien running back to a UFO, but that report has been labeled a hoax.
The sightings made their way to a list compiled by the National UFO Reporting Center, an independent organization that's been around since 1974. The group, which has assisted police departments when people report their observations to 911, has put together a list of more than 90,000 sightings around the world.
