I can’t count how many times I’ve been burned by Ring camera footage that claims to show an alien, a ghost or a skinwalker. So I have zero confidence that this Ring camera in Los Angeles captured an alien, sorry.

That said, just about every local news station in the country has posted the video to their social media pages since it was released last week. In it, you can clearly see the small blue alien walking alongside the porch.

It’s kind of the perfect Ring camera clip: It’s grainy but not too grainy; it shows a split-second clip of the alien. It also captures a sign hanging on the porch that reads, “DEAR GOD: I want to take a minute not to ask anything from you but to say thank you for all I have.”

Again, it’s probably all fake. But the sign is a nice touch at least.

@nbcsouthflorida A California resident’s quest for clarity on what she captured on her doorbell camera widely circulated on social media and has the public asking – are there aliens in Compton? An 11-second video posted by Jessica Ortiz garnered more than 1 million views on her Instagram account. The quick clip, taken by the Ring camera on her porch, shows an alien-looking figure trotting along the side of her porch. #alien#ring#camera#socialmedia♬ original sound - NBCSouthFlorida
