CUBA, Mo. (WJW) — It wasn’t an unidentified flying object, but rather an unidentified driving object that got the attention of a sheriff’s deputy in Missouri Friday.

“You never know what will be traveling through Crawford County but this one was a little out of this world,” Crawford County Sheriff’s Office said in a Facebook post.

A vehicle that looked very much like a space ship was rolling down I-44, reportedly on its way to Roswell, New Mexico. Take a look at photos below:

The deputy took photos with the “friendly humanoids” and had a conversation about making sure the vehicle’s registration was up to date.

“He was also warned about our strict enforcement of warp speed on the interstate and to keep his phasers on stun only while traveling,” the office said in the post.

The drivers of the vehicle reportedly came in peace.
