Locals in the north Colombian department of Magdalena say they spotted a UFO, local media reported Friday.
According to eyewitnesses the unidentified flying object was spotted on Wednesday just after noon.
One of the witnesses recorded the object with his cell phone.
The UFO was reportedly visible in the sky above Magdalena for some fifteen minutes before it disappeared.
According to local newspaper El Informador, members of the Colombian Space Commission have contacted the man who filmed the object with his cell phone.
The sighting comes only days after a giant fireball was seen in the skies above the Santander department, south of Magdalena. One scientist said that the mysterious object may have been a fragment of a Russian satellite.
