| Name | Rod L |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | My wife witnessed it as well. In fact, I didn’t say anything and I wasn’t going to because it happened so quick and then she mentioned she saw it and that’s when I let her know I did as well. Also, I am guessing at the time I did not look down at my cell phone at the time. We know it was after 9:30 and it was probably before 11 PM |
