Wingsuit stunt gives Los Angeles residents a scare. Rick Williams reports during Action News at 4 p.m. on March 21, 2019.

LOS ANGELES, Calif. (WPVI) -- What looked like a fiery meteorite falling from space in the Los Angeles night sky caused quite the stir.

Countless neighbors took to social media last night and asked if it was a UFO leaving behind this trail of flames.

Turns out, it was actually a pair of wing-suit flyers sponsored by Red Bull causing the stir.

The Los Angeles Police Department tweeted that the stunt was not a meteor or an alien invasion, but was instead part of a film shoot.
