GRETNA, La. — An incredibly rare sight in the sky was caught on a doorbell camera near New Orleans.
A possible meteor was seen streaking across the sky at about 4:30 a.m. on Friday. The video shows a brilliantly bright fireball lighting up the early morning sky.
The bright light could be seen all across Southeast Louisiana from Chalmette to New Iberia.
WWL-TV Meteorologist Payton Malone says it is possibly a meteor or space debris falling to the earth, but it is hard to say what the bizarre light in the sky was.
The American Meteor Society was flooded with observer reports and is investigating the sighting.
