PENTICTON, B.C. (CP). -- The department of transport meteorological office at McCall Field received a flurry of calls Wednesday night from Calgarians asking about a flash of light over the city.
The flash, officials believe, was a meteorite.
It appeared about 10:35 p.m., and one witness said it was "like a bolt of lightning."
It was travelling straight north and appeared to be very low, the witness said.
