Occurred : 8/3/2014 20:00 (Entered as : 08/03/2014 20:00) Reported: 5/11/2015 2:26:47 PM 14:26 Posted: 5/13/2015 Location: Wilmington, DE Shape: Fireball Duration: 1-2 minutes
Saw 2 slow moving fireball type orbs heading South over Kirkwood hwy. while at gas station. My fiancee and I were heading North on Rt. 7 (Limestone Road) just south of Rt. 2 (Kirkwood Highway). We pulled into the Shell gas station located at the 7/2 intersection. As we pulled up to the pump and he got out, I looked out towards the strip mall across rt. 2 where A.C. Moore and Kohl's is, and I saw what looked like 2 glowing balls of fire. They were perfectly round, fairly large, and flickered just like a candle flame would. It was not an on off twinkling that you see from airplanes. They were moving slowly from the North to the South, the second ball seemed to moving just slightly faster then the first, as the gap between the 2 seemed to be shrinking. Not sure if that was because of the angle I was seeing them from or not. I sat there watching them until they disappeared over the awning of the gas station.
