I feel alone because I called 911 emergency. And I asked her if anybody else reported it and she said no.. but I explained what I saw. I know what I saw and it was big and it was close. It was dark and it was nice outside last night I was sitting on my porch. It was a big orange red fireball with a long tail of Sparks. I started looking at it from far up in the sky somebody had to see it also.. and like I said it burnt out before it got closer to the ground. I got a good look at it and it was something to see in a lifetime.. that close.. no video no TV. Just live action.. San Antonio Texas..

It was orange red. With a long tail of Orange Sparks at least 40 ft long and I reported it to 911 San Antonio Texas a little after 10:00 pm as soon as I saw it. But it turned off as soon as getting closer to the ground.. around culebra road the St Mary's University area I'm on 353Alicia Street I was sitting on my porch smoking a cigarette with my dog... It was a big fireball..
