Meteorite filmed from a police car camera on a Birmingham motorway

This is the moment a flaming meteorite was captured shooting across the British night sky - from a camera in a POLICE car. Stunned traffic officers spotted the 'bolide' meteor as they travelled on the M42 in the West Midlands at 3am on Monday (30/6). A ten-second clip released by West Midlands Police yesterday (Wed) shows the bright white flash of light hurtling across the sky in front on their vehicle. The video was taken from a camera on the front of one of the force's traffic cars as it left Junction 4 of the motorway near Shirley, West Mids.
