MINNEAPOLIS -- Shortly after 2:00 p.m. Wednesday,
people around the Twin Cities metro reported seeing a
?metallic? or ?flaming ball? falling from the sky.
Emergency dispatchers around the metro reported calls
from around the metro of people seeing the object.
Calls came in from Edina, Maple Grove, Inver Grove
Heights and Brooklyn Park.

 

At 3:15 p.m. the FAA had no reports of anything
falling from any airplanes in the Minneapolis-St. Paul
area. The debris that fell on Interstate 94 on
Wednesday was an unrelated incident

 

Initial speculation is that it was a meteorite which
may have burned up in the atmosphere, as no crash site
has been identified.

 

Workers at business off Highway 100 and 70th Street
said the object was visible from a first floor
conference room with a westward facing window.
