Witness Testimony

"slow moving orange/fireball.On July 14th at about 22:15, I was walking out to my car and looked up to the sky and saw an orange/fireball looking sphere. It started in the east and was moving slowly in a non set course. After a few second of moving in several directions it seem to make a course for the north- north west. While all of this was going on my neighbor had stepped outside and I asked him to confirm that what I was seeing wasn’t in my mind. "
