A BC woman was nearly hit by a meteorite last week.
Ruth Hamilton of Golden, BC, says she was fast asleep last Monday when a piece of rock crashed through her ceiling.
She says an officer was dispatched to the scene and he though he thought it was from a nearby construction site, it was soon determined the rock was a fragment from a meteorite that shot through the night sky earlier that night.
Hamilton says she was not injured and she plans to keep the rock, but that she is now focused on getting her roof fixed.
