If you heard that a hot air balloon was shot down in a race on Saturday near Amarillo, you were majorly misinformed, according to Swisher County police.
Reports from TV said that someone on the ground shot a hot air balloon out of the sky as it was in a race originating in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The reports said after it had been shot, the balloon had to make an emergency landing near Plainview. When authorities came to the alleged landing area, the balloon was there with the two occupants claiming they had been shot at.
