Duration:3 minutes
Bright glowing ball of light in the sky, shot down by plane, retreated and darkened very quickly


me and my friend were standing outside as he was about to leave when we saw a light that looked star-ish but was brighter than any light i had ever seen in the sky, and it seemed to be changing colors in a rainbow-ish pattern. It was floating in the sky near a tree in the distance, hanging in the air but slowly drifting left. As it passed behind the tree and reached the other side, another small craft that looked like a fighter plane flew by and shot out a small white object. This object seemed to hit the glowing light and at once the light started dimming. It then rapidly moved to the right in a slightly zig-zag pattern, flew upwards, at this point almost dark, and dissapered. About 30 seconds later we could hear many many sirens in the distance.
