“A UFO resembling a huge fireball was reported over Lake Arlington on the evening of the Fourth of July.
I know what you’re thinking. We were all thinking it also. But with multiple reports received in the newsroom it would be irresponsible to not at least acknowledge the reports and to do a little digging.

Shortly after 10 p.m. Saturday, Brian Haddock was left more than curious at what he and his children saw traveling from the west over the lake.

“I know it’s 4th of July, but this was big enough that the kids thought it was an airplane crashing,” said Haddock. “It traveled from east to west and just about began on one horizon and ended on the western horizon.”

Haddock wasn’t alone. Brent Widener also saw the object and described it as a “glowing circle, flying close to the ground.”"

During Civil War times, with her husband fighting in the war, Sara Jane and her newborn lived alone in a house out in the woods on a wagon trail along the Neches River, Texas.

One day she received word that the Union soldiers were on their way, so she placed her baby in a wicker basket and set the basket under the wooden bridge that was near her house and returned home.
Neches Bridge
Once the Union soldiers had left, Sara Jane made her way back to the bridge to retrieve her baby, but when she got there, the baby was nowhere to be found. The Neches River had risen and carried the baby away.

Sara Jane searched the banks of the river for hours, screaming and crying, but to no avail. Grief striken and unable to find her child, Sara Jane hung herself from a tree which hung low over the small wagon trail near the wooden bridge.

On certain nights if you stand on the bridge at midnight, you may see the light of a lantern flickering in the woods and hear Sara Jane as she moans and calls for the baby she left under the bridge. The unlucky few can sometimes also hear the cries of the baby in the distance.

Many people in Texas have reported a fireball streaking across the sky on Sunday.
Mystery Fireball
The mystery fireball was also filmed by a television station which was filming a marathon at the time. You can view the video on the Sky News website or from CNN.

“We don’t know what it was,” Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Roland Herwig was quoted as saying.

John Foster, a spokesman for the Williamson County Sheriff’s Office in Georgetown, said deputies and firefighters were out looking for debris after callers said they thought they had seen a plane crashing.

So far no debris or wreckage has been discovered despite the departments search with a helicopter.

The US Strategic Command which is responsible for the tracking of space debris and satellites have said that the sightings are not due to the collision on the US and Russian satellites of a few days ago.

Some people have speculated that it was other space debris or a small meteorite entering the atmosphere. Others have said that it could be linked with a UFO which was spotted in places of the skies of Arizona over the past few days.

This leaves the question: What was it?
