Metallic Disc Landing and Blackouts Reported in Austin

• When: September 11th, 2016 at 7:30 PM
• Where: Austin
• What: Fireball followed by metal disc landing and blackouts, mass sighting

An incredible and frightening encounter of a fireball zooming through the sky and emitting a trail as well as a metallic disc that then appeared to land. During this sighting, there was citywide blackouts. Read the report submitted to NUFORC:

Fireball passes overhead, shiny disc appears and lands

An enormous fireball zipped overhead, leaving a trail behind it, and apparently landed on the ground. Several citywide blackouts and electronic disturbances took place in the hours prior to this happening.

I was driving along I-35 around 7:43PM, when I saw a massive spherical ball of yellow light moving along the sky leavng behind a blue-white trail behind. Sparks were emanating from it similar to those a large Tesla coil produces. The light then disappeared and a smaller metallic object appeared where the light was. The object was a lustrous disc or saucer-shaped object and appeared to land west of I-35. Hundreds of people saw this.

There were massive and alternating blackouts in Austin 12-24 hours before this took place. Several radio towers were also malfunctioning that day, leading to certain television programs such as CBS not airing.

Please investigate this incident. I am shocked and frightened by what I saw.

There is a comment on the report made by NUFORC suggesting this could be a hoax. As I have not seen any other reports like this out of Austin, that is definitely a possibility.  Or perhaps this witness just saw a meteor and then experienced personal problems with electronics and there was just a misunderstanding?

Do you live in Austin or were you visiting on 9/11? Did you see any UFOs or experience any blackouts? Help crack this case and report it!
