An investigation is currenting being conducted into Eau Claire County Sheriff’s Office involving a 29-year-old woman who was found unresponsive in the county jail, according to WEAU News.

A Twitter video allegedly shows footage of a triangular, white UFO rotating in the sky in Eau Claire. The video is accompanied by a robotic voice and eerie music.

“Seen here rotating and silently gliding by, this huge triangular-shaped UFO is remarkable,” the voice over says. “Is this vessel otherworldly, or could it be a secret government craft? Whatever it is is massive in size and was completely silent, even though both witnesses said they felt a vibrating sensation in their chest.”

“This #UFO/#UAP video of a #TR3B was filmed in Eau Claire, Wisconsin,” the post’s caption reads.

This is not a genuine video, however. The footage was debunked in a YouTube video from November 2014 by an account called UFO Theater, a channel that focuses on debunking UFO hoaxes. Likewise, there are no credible news reports about a UFO sighting in Eau Claire. (RELATED: Does This Video Show A UFO In Poland?)
