Nine photos of more sightings of suspected meteor falling from the sky across Sunderland

Sunderland Echo readers have spotted the moment that a Sunderland man believes was a meteor flying over Sunderland houses.

While other residents claim to have spotted the same thing, some are unsure as to whether it really was debris from space.

Sharon Kerry agreed: “I saw this and thought it was off a plane.”

Hayleigh Louise Clark said: “I woke up early hours and the moon was proper shining in my face and I thought I saw something but thought I was dreaming.”

Other readers believe that something like this has happened before.

Anne Neville said: “Me and my late husband, saw a meteor passing over Farringdon a few years ago. That one was reported in the Sunderland Echo. I'm sure that it landed on the roof of the then general hospital. It caused a small fire that had to be extinguished.”
