'Alien' pulled over by police in Georgia

Georgia police had a close encounter with an extraterrestrial ... sort of.

George Gordon, a spokesman for police in Alpharetta, told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution that an officer pulled a man over on Sunday, he found a life-sized alien doll riding in the front passenger seat.

The news outlet reports that the driver was clocked at 84 mph -- not quite UFO-speed, but still pretty dangerous for a suburban highway.

Gordon told the Associated Press that the man never mentioned why he had an alien in the front seat.

The driver got off with a verbal warning and even a few laughs. The officer shared photos of the encounter to social media.
