Witness Testimony

"I WAS COMING BACK FROM EAST SIDE ACE HARDWARE, DRIVING UP MY ALLEY WHERE I PARK. I HAVE A WIDE VIEW FROM ABOUT THE DINASAUR ON THE HILL TO 180 DEGREES TO THE LEFT (RAPID VALLEY). I SAW A LARGE FIREBALL AT APROX 45 DEGREES STRAIGHT AHEAD OF ME AND WENT DOWN ON THE HORIZON AT ABOUT A 45 DEGREE ANGLE, WITH A LARGE TRAIL BEHIND. AND IT IS NOT POSSIBLE FOR ME TO ESTIMATE WHERE IT WOULD HAVE LANDED. A WILD GUESS IS IT LANDED NEAR EDGEMONT."
