“But there is one place where there was neither MES
nor military. In general, anyone, and it was there,
according to local residents, and all fell. Residents of
a village in the south of Chelyabinsk - the name is not
disclosed specifically - show black stones and believe
that he is the fragments of a meteorite.

"The kids found fresh snow hole and started to get
out of the metal pieces of different shapes," - says
Sergey Turnovsky."

(meteorobs) awesome fireball over Russia, with videos and photos

Didn't seem to be reported here yet. Looks almost as bright
as the Sun. Some dashboard cam videos plus other views of
how much it lit up the area. Loud sonic booms, broken
windows, even damage to a building -- according to the story.
