INDIANAPOLIS (WTHR) – A day after the nation was fascinated by an apparent meteor flashing over Michigan, Indiana may have gotten its own show.
Several people are reporting seeing a flash in the sky around 11:45 p.m. Wednesday in central Indiana. Police departments to the east of Indianapolis, including Morristown and sheriff’s deputies in Shelby, Rush and Henry County reported seeing the “bright blue green flash” to the northeast.
A bright blue green flash was witnessed by Officers in Shelby, Rush & Henry Co at approximately 11:50 pm on 1/17/18. Our Officer witnessed the light to the NE of Town. At this time we have not receiving any reports of power outages, may have been a meteor, aka: shooting star.
Reports are also coming in to the American Meteor Society’s website from Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Michigan and Ohio of the sighting. That website reportedly crashed due to heavy traffic after the Michigan sighting.
