Witness Testimony

" ball of light travelled east to west in 3 minutes.A ball of light similar in size to a star travelled from the east to the west horizon and disappeared when it reached the west. It was travelling too fast to be a plane and only took roughly 3 minutes to go that distance, there were no flashing lights or sudden movements and it travelled in a normal fashion. It was a perfectly clear night and nothing else of that description appeared over the next hour. Could it have been a meteor? "
