The officer's wife grabbed their youngest child and ran to call police from a neighbor's house. Jubilee said the blue ice broke into many pieces when it hit the roof, with the largest chunk estimated at 40 pounds.
Hettstedt, Lower Franconia, Bavaria. Yesterday, a gardener heard a high-whistling whiff and then a crash. A natural boulder (1m , 3.3ft) in his garden was smashed by a 20 kilo (44 lbs) chunk of blueish ice that broke to several pieces and pierced the earth by 20 cm (8 in). The biggest remainig chunk has still a diameter of 43 cm (17 in).
