Dad captures amazing dashcam footage of METEOR hurtling through the sky - as sonic boom heard across four counties

A dad-of-two captured this extraordinary video footage of a METEOR hurtling through the sky - at the same time as a huge sonic boom was heard across four counties.

Ian Dryhurst, 42, was in the car with his wife Wendy, and their nine-year-old twin sons William and Maximilian, when the family saw the "bright light" shoot through the sky yesterday (Sat) afternoon.

With the sun shining brightly in the clear blue sky, Ian, from Jersey in the Channel Islands, wondered if what he had seen was just a trick of the light.
