NUFORC Sighting 66728

Occurred: 2008-11-04 19:30 Local
Reported: 2008-11-05 20:22 Pacific
Duration: 15 seconds

Location: Duncan, OK, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Landed

Brilliant red light slowly descends from high in the sky and disappears behind buildings.

While going northbound on Hy 81, stopped at the light by Braum's, a red light slowly descended from approximately 500 feet down to what looked like the ground behind buildings about a block north of Braum's, near the Arvest parking lot. The light was as brilliant as an LED light, at least the diameter of a stop light. There was no wind, the sky was clear.

The light descended slowly in a straight trajectory. It didn't flicker or dim. There was nothing falling from it. It was just a brilliant, clear red light that slowly descended from a clear sky and disappeared behind some buildings.

I asked the drive-through clerk if she had seen it, and she had, but didn't have any idea what it was. I drove past where I estimated it might have landed, but there was nothing out of the ordinary.

I would really like to know what it was, and whether or not anyone else saw it.
