>> Meteorite lands in Shrewsbury back garden
>> Rocks believed to be from a meteorite shower landed in the back garden of a Shropshire home, just inches away from where two young children were playing.
>> Mum-of-two Sarah Marston-Jones, of Copthorne, in Shrewsbury, says she and her children are lucky to be alive after more than 15 rock fragments landed as the youngsters played on a trampoline.
>> Mrs Marston-Jones, a schoolteacher, said Harry, aged two, and Benjamin, four, were enjoying the sunshine when all three of them heard a large ?whooshing? and ?cracking? sound through the hedges and trees before a strong burning smell filled the air.
>> She said the brown and black coloured rocks, which also showered down on the outside patio, ranged in size, but some were more than an inch wide.
