Witness Testimony

"I was outside with my 2 children watching distant fireworks when this red oval bright red light came over the treetops above the trees, i shouted for my kids to see it , they did hen it shot out of sight to the south and wa gone ina flash. It was as big as my thumb in the sky, no flashing lites, there were planes in the sky all flashing lites this was big and definately not an airplane or helicopter or firework. When I saw it i was shocked and transfixed on it the kids were also in awe about it. the whole sighting lasted maybe 30 seconds or so i was so shocked i did not really look for discriminating marks or features just watched it as it hovered then moved to the south and then gone in a split second`"
