For one driver in Waukesha County, it may have seemed like the sky was falling on Sunday, July 27 – and he will be telling this story for years.

What in the world?!

What we know:

Albert Cutler and his family were driving home from church around 10:30 a.m. on Sunday. Cutler noticed a bald eagle flying over Highway 16 in Okauchee Lake. Cutler told FOX6 News he then saw a fish fall from the bald eagle's grasp, and thought to himself, "Did I just hit a fish?" 

Cutler's family, riding in a car in front of him, saw the incident as well. Cutler said he thought nothing of it for the rest of the drive home.

What they found

When the entire family arrived home, Cutler's daughter found the fish, a largemouth bass, wedged in the truck's grill.

Cutler said his truck looked OK after having removed the stuck fish.

Now, the bass is in a bag in the family fridge -- as Cutler did not know what to do after pulling it out of the grill.

Cutler told FOX6 News he seldom fishes, but he does buy a license. He said this fish is the "biggest bass" he's ever caught.
