SIGHTING: PORTLAND, OREGON (UNITED STATES)

Witness Testimony

"Standing in my front yard a small white bright dot streaked across the sky from my left east to my right west fast about the speed of a slow pitch base ball there was no sound i first thought it might be a firework but it had no sound and no pop at the end and it moved horizontal without a drop in in the vertical direction. at first i thought it was a shooting star or meteorite but it was silent with no change in size or light intensity after a few seconds it went dark or went out like a shooting star but it was 5 to 10 feet higher than our tallest tree it was to fast to capture video or still images of it this is over the bethany area of portland oregon. there was a small commuter plane flying se to nw towards hillsborough airport 1 to 2 minutes before the sighting and the plane was flying very slow ( in comparison to normal flight over my house everyday here ) "
