Hello all,
Following on from yesterdays news item "Skyquake scares Scottish villagers", I report the following.
I was visiting an office in Peterlee, North east England today, and got talking to one of the security guards there. He mentioned that this morning (16/11/01) the building had been completely evacuated following what was initially thought to be an explosion nearby. The blast was violent enough to dislodge tiles from the office suspended ceiling. No damage, smoke or debris was apparent anywhere once they got outside.
He then said that they had later sought information from the police as to what may have happened, and were told it "may have been a sonic boom".
I have no further info, and have heard nothing on the local news....anyone else got any info?
