BRIEF SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS Observer watched a basketball shaped red and yellow object move toward the western sky. Observer had stopped her car at a stop sign and before proceeding heard a swish sound. As observer made the turn she noticed a strange glow coming at her. It was all lit up, with a red and yellow glowing light. The object disappeared heading straight upward. Observer compared the unknown to a blimp.
Considering the submitted evidence it appears that the witness saw and reported an aircraft. There is extremely a large air traffic area, and it appears that the witness observed some type of aircraft.
