Reported: 2014-09-12 22:34 Pacific
Duration: 2 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Maryville, MO, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object, Left a trail, Emitted other objects

One point of light split into three points of light.

I was facing NNE at ~11:50 from Northwest University and saw a white point of light fall downward from left to right at a pretty steep angle. The point of light split into three smaller points and eventually faded off.

Both the single point and the three points had a trail behind them.

This all happened in ~two seconds.

It was roughly 30° above ground level.

I would be willing to guess it was a meteor.

Even if it’s not a UFO this is just to help report and confirm any other similar sightings at this place and time.
