| Name | Reed C |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | The tail following it was almost visibly flickering like a flame. It appeared very suddenly. I lost sight of it when it passed behind the building in front of me from my perspective, at which point I ran around to the back. I didn't see anything hit the ground or any sign of it in that direction, so I don't think it was a flare or anything. |
