We received numerous phone calls, Wednesday night, from people who say they saw something burning fall out of the sky.

Unconfirmed reports are that it was a meteor falling to earth.

So far, the phone calls have come in from residents in several different counties across Central Texas, many of whom thought the falling object may have been a plane.

The lights flashed across the night sky about 9:20 P.M. and were
spotted as far north as Dallas Fort Worth.

A spokesman for the National Weather Service in Fort Worth said
the sightings were not tied to a weather event and were likely a
meteor shower.
