| Name | Raymond T |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I was in my bedroom looking out of the window which faces west. I saw a bright light which, at first, I thought was a shooting star. As the object moved from South to North across my field of vision I saw it was a bright white/yellow globe, obviously aflame with what looked like bits breaking off also in flame. The object was coming down in a fairly tight curve so I reported the sighting to the local Cleveland Police at 10:12. I was worried that if it had landed over land, it would cause some damage. I also reported my sighting on Facebook to see if anybody else had seen it. |
