“Fireworks were being fired from neighborhood street at the time approximately 9:35pm to 9:40pm May19th (location is 5nm from the Waterloo international airport).”

The witness describes the altitude and direction of the object.

He describes his initial reaction to the sighting.

“At first dismissing it as fireworks.”

The witness describes the movement and direction of the object.

“Then Noticed this fireball was just hanging there and drifting ever so slightly.  Then I observed the this glowing ball moving with increasing speed to the North West on an accelerating straight path.”

 He further describes the speed of the object.
