although it was very difficult to judge the height and trajectory, the fireball seemed as though it was very close in proximity and from my perspective looked like it fizzed out and landed somewhere near the Gilbert Rd. area on the North side of the Richmond dyke.

the bright green light persisted from when I first saw it all the way over my head and across the dyke where it fizzled out abruptly. It was one ball of light the entire time I viewed it.
