Investigators have been left baffled after an unidentified object crashed into a cornfield in Poland last night.
The object is said to have fallen into a field in the village of Osiny in Lukow County in western Poland, which is more than 75 miles from the country’s eastern border with Ukraine.
After crashing, the object exploded – with the force of the blast shattering the windows of several homes, according to local reports.
Terrifying video from a neighbour’s surveillance camera captured the moment the explosion rocked the sleepy Polish town.
One witness said they were awoken to a “loud bang” that shook the windows of their home.
They returned to bed until they saw the lights of police cars as officers arrived to investigate.
“I was woken by a loud bang that shook the windows. I looked outside but couldn’t see anything. It wasn’t until the morning that I noticed the lights of police cars,” the witness told Łuków.TV.
Lukow police representative Marcin Jozwik told Polish broadcaster TVN24: “In a corn field, we found burnt items of various sizes scattered over a radius of several dozen meters. These are burnt metal and plastic fragments.”
Mr Jozwik added that officers were still scouring the area for further evidence and debris.
Thankfully, police said no one was injured as a result of the blast.
