| Name | Jeremy L |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | My family and I were leaving the shopping area at the approximate address and intersection heading back to our hotel(Hampton Inn Suites) at 6336 Harrison Ave, Cincinnati, OH 45247. When we arrived back at the hotel we could see the remnants of the tail of the fireball in the same vicinity in the sky upon exiting my vehicle. When I first saw the fireball it seemed like it was traveling in a southeast to northwest direction. |
