I was on my way to work before turning into Gutha Road, I stopped the
Car in the road and asked my husband if in the sky the red glowing object
Was a plane or something else. Just as I finished my sentenced a large red ball of fire shot over the back of my car directly over the windshield (about 20 feet up) it burned out pretty quickly. It was an amazing site to see I am so
Happy my husband and kids were there with me to see it
