I agree with Rob, I immediately thought that someone probably emptied a barbeque grill and those are lava rocks. A relative of mine witnessed an extremely bright fall last year and she swore that she saw it fall beside the road in a field. After getting the news reports, it turned out that it fell several hundred miles away. The impact is always further away than the witness thinks. So, it would be extremely unlikely if he had actually found it where he thought it fell.

I suspect they aren't meteorites at all. --Rob -----Original Message----- From: meteorite-list-boun...@meteoritecentral.com [mailto:meteorite-list-boun...@meteoritecentral.com] On Behalf Of Thomas Randall Sent: Thursday, March 08, 2012 12:37 PM To: meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com Subject: [meteorite-list] Man claims to find meteor CNN http://bit.ly/zs05kg ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
