Hier noch, was Mr.Muonionalusta Österberg heut auf der US-List dazu geschrieben,
denn wer kann schon Schwedisch...
According to local newspapers and regional radio service, a large bolide crossed the sky, coming from east and rapidly moving towards west, over the nothern part of Sweden some days ago. The event took place late Saturday evening, at about 10.45 PM, local time.
One witness told a reporter, that "the sky became brighter than a sunny day", when the meteoroid crossed the sky over him.
Also, according to blogs in the local newspapers, many witnesses have heard
loud noises, like explosions, over a large area around the town Kiruna. A
woman was almost sure that she had seen a fragment falling just outside her
house.
Observations of the bolide has dropped in from all part of northern Sweden,
from about 1000 km south of Kiruna and northwards. Reports of this event has
also been noted from northern Norway.
Attempts will be made to calculate the orbit, by processing data collected
from the network of infra sound microphones in northern Sweden.

Swedish, but you may be able to translate it using Babel fish.
