Why are the police looking for meteorites?

One problem is that people will routinely claim that a meteor "landed just beyond the next mountain" when it never got closer than 60 miles to earth.
There's an overwhelming optical illusion from a bright fireball that's it's much closer than it actually was.
And meteorite impacts NEVER EVER start fires, unless it's a truly enormous worldkiller that would have killed half the people in Spain or whatever.
Meteorites basically always impact at room temperature. Seeing someone claiming small fires were started, or they saw a meteor land and it was a rock that was hot to the touch guarantees the story is 100% bogus.
