I had been driving for over an hour and heard a sudden explosion that made me think there was a gunshot and heard glass shattering but couldn't see anything. I was fearful so I drove further down to the fire dept to assess to the damage and ensure no one was following me. Called 911 for help because I was so shaken. Discovered the back portion of my panoramic sunroof had exploded.
