“Penetrated The Roof”: Meteorite Crashes Into New Jersey Bedroom

The operations manager for the American Meteor Society, Mike Hankey, believes a metallic object that crashed through the roof of a Hopewell Township, New Jersey, home on Monday is a meteorite.

“This is most certainly a meteorite, and there are likely more meteorite fragments now scattered around the town,” Hankey said in a statement on the Hopewell Township’s Facebook page.

Hopewell Township announced in a press release that the metallic object is 4 inches by 6 inches.
