Orange flaming ball of fire, flying west to east, with no sound or navigation lights.I first observed an orange flaming light rising in the western sky. The object was in the shape of a ball of flame. It continued in a easterly direction and continued to accelerate in a straight path. At times the clouds would obscure the light. There was no sound or navigation lights. The flame eventually faded but a dark object could still be seen flying to the horizon in Eastern sky. Still no navigation lights could be seen. I am a police officer and would not have posted this sighting unless I thought to be unusual and difficult to explain.((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information.
