“It’s a shadow of a person walking. If you look at the beginning of the clip, you can see the person at the bottom of the shadow,” Officer Michael Vega said in a statement.

The real reason for the massive police presence was unrelated to aliens.

Reports indicated that over 50 juveniles, possibly armed with sticks, were causing chaos in the mall.

Fireworks added to the confusion, leading terrified shoppers to flee, fearing a shooting. Businesses temporarily shut down until officers restored order.

Witnesses captured scenes of panic as shoppers fled the area amidst a heavy police presence. Initial reports suggested a potential alien encounter, fueling wild speculation reminiscent of past UFO sightings.

However, Miami police swiftly addressed the situation, attributing the mall shutdown to a disturbance involving a large group of unruly juveniles. 

On social media, many speculated about the presence of extraterrestrial life among humans

Despite the straightforward explanation, rumors persisted.

On platforms like X, users claimed that "10ft Aliens/Creatures" had been fired upon both inside and outside the Miami Mall. Some lamented the lack of media coverage, questioning how such events could occur without widespread reporting.

One person said: That sounds EXACTLY like something the police department would say to hide an alien encounter!!!

A second wrote: I saw a triangular craft back in the late 90s. My parents and I saw it in the distance above our cornfield. Disappeared after 10 minutes of hovering in the same place. A week later people had reported seeing the same craft. Still sends chills down my spine.

While a third commented: People in power are hiding a lot of things. If the police dept can deny what didn’t happen can they explain what did happen to justify the amount of dispatch

The aliens were inside but the “ big creature “ outside the mall are 3 to 4 cops walking next to each other. Around that area you can see people walking around casually also. Someone else said. 

Another added: Difficult to accept when almost every human being on earth can record anything in the blink of an eye but, as is usual with these types of moments, a grainy and barely visible being is all we have!
