TEHRAN (Reuters) - A meteorite has hit northern Iran causing minor damage to property but there were no immediate reports of casualties, state radio has said.

It said the impact sent locals in panic onto the streets in the northern town of Babol in Mazandaran province.

"A meteorite which hit Babol on Friday morning caused only some minor damage to residential units," radio said, without giving further details or citing any source.

It said the impact was felt up to one kilometre away.

Iranians are currently mourning at least 30,000 people killed by an earthquake measuring 6.8 on the Richter scale which struck southeastern Iran on December 26.

Find the rock and sell it, meteorites can be worth some serious bank. Watch, if we get in a shooting war with Iran the media will say this valuable scientific treasure was destroyed by US forces.

Wanna start a pool on how soon DUmmies start a thread on Bush Bombs Iran but disguises it as a meteor?

"Thomas Jefferson, President of the United States, responded with great skepticism: 'Gentlemen, I would rather believe that two Yankee professors would lie than believe that stones fall from heaven.'"

So it's settled policy: it must be Bush!
