An 8-pound unidentified flying object that crashed through the roof of a moving company warehouse in an industrial area of Jersey City this morning, narrowly missing a co-owner of the company, turned out to simply be a piece of machinery.
The metal block, which took 30 minutes to cool down, fell through the roof of a one-story brick warehouse belonging to Al Smith Moving at 33 Pacific Ave. at 9:26 a.m., officials said.
Jersey City Police Department investigators found that the block flew off a mulching machine that breaks up wood, belonging to a recycling company, Reliable Wood Products at 1 Caven Point Avenue.
Theories abounded -- perhaps it was piece of a plane, maybe debris from the recent collision in space between a U.S. satellite and defunct Russian satellite.
But Jersey City police solved the case shortly after noon.
