More people are sharing their accounts of the meteorite that fell on Saturday afternoon, causing a boom heard all throughout the region.
Bob Todt was driving in Fort Plain, New York when it happened, and noticed something strange on the horizon - a flaming object streaking across the sky and captured on his dash camera.
"We were leaving my daughter's wedding, and as we were driving down the road, I saw the streak," Todt said. "Of course you think in your head 'Did I really see that?'" - Aired on 05/31/2026.
