Just briefly caught sight of this craft that was just above the water off the northwest coast of the island.

I later that day heard on the news about a “Boom” over Bell Island, and didn’t hear if there were any other witnesses. At the time, I didn’t say anything about it because nobody would probably believe me, but it’s been stuck in my memory ever since.
