I saw a fireball drop rapidly in the sky in front of me then obviously shoot away and disappear.
While exiting on Grand Ave. from 580E, I witnessed a silver fireball suddenly appear in the sky above and straight ahead of me, approx. 50-100 away. It fell very rapidly in a slight arc, then it plainly shot away, ahead of me, and disappeared. For that fraction of a second that it shot away, it became smaller in size before disappearing.
The fireball effect was impressive enough, but I wouldn't have thought it nearly so odd had I not seen that effect of an actual object traveling away from me.
I was coming home from my work as a veterinary nurse.
