Suspected meteor causes 'sonic boom' over North Canty

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

People across North Canterbury have reported hearing a loud "boom" and seeing a suspected meteor or space junk trace through the sky at roughly 6pm on Monday night.

The object looked like it was "burning up and coming down", one neighbour said. She described it as "moving slowly", and said it had an "orange glow to it" and a long trail.

Coster thought it was a meteor, and joked the "hunt's on to find it now". One person posted to social media to say they had heard it in Oxford. Others reported seeing it from Kaiapoi and Rangiora.
