| Remarks | I was headed west on Hwy 7, it started right infront of us, shot across the sky to the left and seemed to explode. Just a flash of light no fragments or debris. I eventually turned left. The lady proceeding to head straight looked stunned. Hopefully one of the other cars initially stopped at the light(hw7 and Brock Road) had a dash cam. |
