A mysterious object fell from the sky yesterday, crashing through the roof of  Michael’s Wholesale Furniture Distributors in Plymouth, Mass., leaving a small hole in the roof and scattering debris throughout a closet, but otherwise leaving workers unharmed.
The cylindrical hunk of metal was about six inches long and weighed roughly five pounds. It crashed through the roof, either Wednesday or Thursday according to local authorities.
The origins of the object are currently unknown, Captain John Rogers admitted that he could “only speculate” saying simply “It’s a mystery.”
