Concord, NH: Mystery Boom Shakes CityConcord, NH: Mystery Boom Shakes City Residents of Concord, New Hampshire, were startled by a series of loud booms that shook the city on Tuesday evening. The booms, which occurred around 7:30 PM, were heard throughout the city and sent residents scrambling for cover. “I thought my house was going to collapse,” said one resident. “It was like something had exploded right outside my window.” Another resident reported seeing a bright flash of light just before the booms. “I looked out my window and saw a huge orange ball in the sky,” she said. “It was like something from a movie.” Police and fire officials responded to numerous calls from residents but were unable to determine the source of the booms. They searched the area but found no evidence of any explosions or other disturbances. “We’re still investigating what caused the booms,” said Concord Police Chief Brad Osgood. “We’re working with the state police and the FBI to try to determine what happened.” Osgood said it was possible that the booms were caused by a sonic boom from a military jet, but that they were still investigating all possibilities. “We’re asking anyone who has any information about the booms to contact the police,” Osgood said. “We want to get to the bottom of this as soon as possible.” The booms have left many residents shaken and wondering what caused them. Some have speculated that they were caused by an earthquake or a meteor impact, but there is no evidence to support these claims. “It was a scary experience,” said one resident. “I’m just glad everyone is okay.” The investigation into the mystery booms is ongoing.
