Uproar about a light from the sky

by Razlan Mohd Salleh and Junaidi Ladjana

Kota Kinabalu: The appearance of a red light in the sky that was clearly visible for a some time not only caused people to panic, but some were quick to make various assumptions including claiming the incident was caused by a meteor or comet.

It was determined that the red light first became clearly visible around Penampang and Putatan beginning at 7 pm yesterday [3 Sept 2014], before eventually becoming blurred and then later disappear at about 10pm. 

A resident who only wanted to be known as Winnie, 22, said she was aware of the phenomenon when driving her car to go home, about 9pm. 

"Then, I drove to Tanjung Aru and people were out of their housees as well as crowding along the beach.

LIGHT mystery that shocked the public.

"I stopped the vehicle and saw a line of light in the sky and thought it was a meteor," he said when met here yesterday.

Winnie said, the situation was somewhat different because the light from a comet will move, but this light appeared stationary.
