The guy says he searched all night after seeing the fireball and found the stone, in a small pit with smoke coming off of it and says that it looks like granite. He says that it is not totally burned and that it was still warm.
Somehow, it seems to me that this guy could just be so excited that he is just making it up as he goes.
