No of observers: 1

Location: Newark, OH, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object

Red light (orb)

I was leaving for work when I noticed a bright red object just above the tree line, I was heading directly toward it for about 30 sec. In that time I noticed it was moving and had changed directions. I had a similar sighing last year before the fireworks in Newark also, and was interested enough this time to stop my car and shut off the engine. I couldn't detect any sound or see any other lights just the red glow. It was moving in my direction, and I lost sight of it when the street light I was under obstructed its view. I waited for it to reappear out of the glare of the light, but it never did. I assumed it had entered cloud cover,

I got into my car pulled forward about 50 yards, to where I had a clear view of the sky, there was no cloud cover at all. In my estimation, it was either very large, or very close to the ground.
