Lightning Bolt UFO in San Antonio

A driver has seen a very strange UFO over San Antonio. They witnessed what, at first glance, appeared to be a meteor or shooting star, but upon deeper thought, turned into an unidentified object. The sighting from May 22nd resembled a lightning bolt shooting straight across the sky. Here's the full testimony reported to MUFON:

I was driving a semi-truck northbound on IH-35 about 40-50 miles of San Antonio,TX. In the sky above me i saw what i thought was lightening illuminating a section of the sky and i looked up and saw what looked to be a straight line of brilliant white light shoot across a section of sky. My immediate impression was that it was an meteorite or something burning up as it came closer to the earth. However, it was the same color and appearance as a bolt of lightening, and simply shot straight across the sky for maybe 2 seconds before ending. It left an afterimage in the sky very similar to a lightening strike, but there was no thunder. It lit up the few clouds in the sky which is what caused me to look up and wonder if it was lightening, and that's when the streak of light appeared. It was almost like a laser beam that lasted 2 seconds. I've seen shooting stars before and this looked nothing like that. It went straight across the sky and was as bright as lightening. It has left me curious as to what it might have been. I'm sure other drivers saw it as well.

Could this be related to the mass UFO sightings in the area that same night?
