A strong blast shook the northern area of the Nicaraguan capital city Managua around midnight on Saturday, September 6, 2014. The cause was a meteorite's impact. No one was injured nor was damage caused.
The loud noise alarmed the families that live nearby. Some fled from their houses fearing an earthquake.
