Police and fire crews responded about 1 a.m to reports of the flash and boom near Moab Way and Manila Drive but didn't find anything, the Draper City Police Department stated in a news release. Police later obtained video from a doorbell camera 'that showed a bright flash of light with accompanying booming noise at 1:13 AM on the mountain northeast of the Salt Lake County Flight Park,' the release states.
