Some thought it as ‘horrifying’, others labelled it ‘unbelievable’ and one man even described feeling a shock wave from a sonic boom.

‘It's a windfall for me, a catastrophe for others,’ owner Bob Polgar told NBC, with one of the major problems being dents on roofs.

‘They were the size of tennis balls,’ resident Sandy White told NBC. ‘I had to check if any of my windows were broken.’
