Ball Of Orange And Yellow Light Over Hatzic Bench Mission British Columbia

Date: March 27, 2011
Time: Approx: 8:35 p.m.

Hello my name is (name removed), and on the night of Sunday, March 27 2011 at approximately 8:35 pm, my wife and my two sons witnessed what appeared to be a ball of orange and yellow light coming over the Fraser river from the southwest at a very low altitude for several minutes. Thinking it was a plane on fire, we watched it climb into the northeast sky, flicker like a candle, and appear to fall.

We live on Hatzic Bench, so the fireball was clear for approximately 2-4 minutes. I have subsequently reported it to the Non-emergency line at Mission and Abbotsford police. They have no record of any planes crashing however they did acknowledge that they had at least one other report of this kind.

Hope this helps to find out what we saw. Thanks.
