On July 4, 2009, between approximately 12:30 a.m. and 12:43 a.m., a witness in a parking lot observes for 2 to 3 minutes a luminous phenomenon above the neighboring building. The sky is clear and the witness describes whitish-colored fireballs. The phenomenon moves silently along a south-north trajectory, then stops and changes direction before disappearing quickly toward the east. The witness films the scene on his mobile phone.
