In Strasbourg, eastern France, a mysterious incident concerns the police. There has been a 50 centimeter hole in the roof of a parked Renault Clio since Monday. A window is also broken. Experts initially assumed a meteorite impact, but only a small rock was found.
The most important thing beforehand: no one was injured and no one was in the red car at the time of the collision.
At 7 a.m., a loud bang was reported and heard throughout the district, local media reported. The alerted police immediately started looking for the identity of the car owner. The information ultimately given to him left a number of questions unanswered.
Police to car owners: ‘It’s complicated, you’ll see…’
“I asked her: ‘What’s going on?'” the man told French broadcaster TF1. “They said, ‘It’s complicated, you’ll see…'”
Even 24 hours later, the incident is still no closer to resolution. A senior fire official told the broadcaster about the suspicion of a meteorite: “Given the condition of the vehicle, everything indicates that it could be one.” A short afterword: ‘Until proven otherwise, it is one.’
Small stone, big impact
Apparently the experts are still far from any evidence. The object that caused the damage entered the tank through the roof and the rear seat. However, nothing was found there. The current prime suspect is a rock discovered around the car.
The theories currently being pursued: either the object was actually significantly smaller than you would expect given the damage caused, or the impact was so violent that the suspected meteorite exploded due to the forces released and crumbled into dust.
In any case, the car owner would have taken it with humor and, according to TF1, responded to the cosmic accident with a laugh.
