The National Civil Protection Coordination confirmed that the object seen in the skies during the night of February 18 was a meteorite.
"Regarding the video that circulates in networks about the sighting of a #Meteorite, once analyzed by different members of the #SINAPROC and specialists, it is confirmed that it is a meteorite that surely was destroyed in the air," the agency informed through their official Twitter account.
Users on social networks showed images of the meteorite, and as expected with social media, conspiracy theories followed. Many users reported the meteorite hit the ground, a theory that authorities ruled out . . .
