Meteorite Hits Mexico Leaving 30 Meter Crater in Ahuazotepec Municipality

A meteorite has smashed into the ground in Mexico, leaving a 30 meter (100 
feet) wide crater, reports said.

The meteorite impact was in the Ahuazotepec Municipality in Central Mexico 
between the cities of Puebla and Hidalgo.

The precise impact area of the meteorite was in a relatively unpopulated area 
and hit around 6.30pm local time, Mexican media said.

The Ahuazotepec, Mexico meteorite impact was so massive it broke windows in 
homes many kilometers from the epicenter and people reported buildings swaying 
and mass confusion. Other reports said the Mexico meteorite impact partially 
damaged a road and a bridge.

The Mexican military was called in to lock down the area where the apparent 
space rock slammed into the ground.

Initial fears where that the impact was a aircraft crashing to the ground, but 
that report was later dismissed.

The Central Mexico meteorite event was witnessed by countless people in the 
region of the impact, with people as far away as Mexico City saying they saw 
the burning object enter the atmosphere.
