A dad told how he and his son were left shocked by a mysterious "bluey-green colour" that was moving fast through the sky in Scotland.
Stuart Armour said he was in disbelief after his dashcam captured the strange light falling from the night sky. The 52-year-old took the images of the mystery object plummeting to Earth just outside Kilmarnock town centre.
He was driving along Hill Street on his way home when his son who noticed the glowing form tearing through the darkness of the night. And the puzzled parent was left desperate to work out what the strange occurrence was.
The strange light was captured on the dashcam (UGC/Ayrshire Live))"It was strange, my son saw it first and he said 'what was that?'," said Stuart. "I saw it too but I didn't know what it was. So we went home and had a look at the dashcam footage and I didn't think it would show, but I was surprised to see that it did. It was something about five or six stories high, and it was a bluey-green colour. It was a bit of a weird one."
Speaking to Ayrshire Live, about the incident in February 2022, Stuart how he couldn't work out what it could possibly be and that his son suggested it may have been a meteor or some kind of space debris.

Stuart said he has no idea what it was (UGC/Ayrshire Live))Despite repeatedly viewing the stunning footage, Stuart was left none the wiser about what the plummeting light was. Another suggestion that he had was that it may have been a low-flying gull, but he ruled that out before his son suggested it could have been the space debris.
Stuart said: "It wasn't a reflection or a bird flying under a lamppost. It was much higher than a lamppost and it looked like it was going quite fast. It was something that was lit. I also thought it could've been a Chinese lantern but it wasn't that orange colour. I have no idea what it could be, although my son thought it looked like a meteor."
