Suspected meteor damages car: 1947


OSTROM REPORTS CAB STRUCK BY RED HOT METEOR

The thrill of a meteor striking the cab of his truck was experienced by John Ostrom, Nyssa lumberman Wednesday of last week while he was en route to McCall.

When Ostrom had reached a point about a mile north of Tamarac, an object struck the cab just above the windshield, and the driver thought someone had thrown a rock at him. Angered, he drove on and did not think of the object being a meteor until later.

When he made an inspection, Mr. Ostrom found the cab dented and showing signs of having been struck by a red hot object.
