" Red ball with fire over Lynchburg, Va.I saw a red ball like object that appeared to have a flame of sorts around it. It moved upward and proceeded slowly in a horizonal motion then increased slightly in speed. As i was driving, I was unable to keep a constant visual of the object, and it disappeared. I have never witnessed anything like this.((NUFORC Note: Source of the report elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD)) "
