Bright Fireball in the Los Angeles Sky
My friend and I were driving West on San Vicente when we saw a large fireball come out of the sky from nowhere with a trail similar to a comets.
Then it disappeared with a bright flash of light. It almost looked like it was a plane or some other object crashing towards the earth - and appeared close - almost like it was going to crash into the street ahead of us.
As soon as we thought we would hear it crash - it disappeared.
Did not look like a meteor - it was way too close in the sky.
Just want to confirm that others have seen something like this too or even saw this incident because it honestly freaked us out and my friend and I are very rational and objective people.
But even living in Los Angeles with the movie industry, it looked like something straight out of a Sci-Fi movie.
