Several callers to el-Shinta radio station spoke of a fast whitish object crossing the sky towards the west of Jakarta and a big explosion followed by what they said sounded like an echo. Metro TV station reported that a large object, suspected to be a meteor, had fallen to earth, also to the west of the city. Police said they were investigating the reports, but they had no reports of any bombings in the capital. No other details were immediately available.
