Reports Report 3434amg (Event 3434-2013)

Observer
Name Darin R
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I'm a police officer and we were leaving a call at 132 Bonita, getting into our squad cars when I saw what I thought was a meteor in the sky straight up the street, ahead of us. I asked the other officer if she saw it. She did not. I described it to her. Too bad we don't have dash cams. Because we radioed when we departed, I'm sure of the time 5:41 or 5:42 CDT, our calls are time stamped. Sgt. Darin Redden, Wood River PD
