'Huge meteor' crashes to earth as flash of light is spotted in sky and houses start to shake
A 'meteor' crashed into earth causing tremors and a huge "flash of light" in the sky, it has been reported.



The fireball was spotted at Turkey Beach and Emerald in Queensland as hundreds of locals took the social media to report their houses shaking and a "burning light" in the sky.

Police received a number of calls from concerned residents in the Gladstone area, reporting tremors in what was initially believed to be an earthquake.

Geoscience Australia has since officially ruled out an earthquake and Higgins Storm Chasing crew said a "meteorite impacted somewhere offshore".
