Meteorite Injures Hundreds in Russia 
-------------------------------------


 
In Russia, more than 400 people were reportedly injured when a meteorite
shot across the sky and dropped fireballs down to earth. Video shows the
meteorite blazing a brilliant path of light across the sky. But the
display caused mass panic as car alarms went off and windows shattered.
Authorities said most injuries were minor and resulted from flying
glass.
