Samastipur: A mysterious incident caused a stir in Belsandi Deeh village, Ward No. 4, Bajidpur Bambaiya, under Vibhutipur police station in Samastipur district, Bihar, on Thursday evening. A shining, unidentified device, marked 'Made in Korea', suddenly fell from the sky near the residence of local inhabitant Banshidhar Mishra. The incident created an atmosphere of panic and curiosity among villagers, with a large crowd quickly gathering at the spot.

Villagers promptly informed the local police, who arrived and swiftly took possession of the glowing device, bringing it safely to the police station. Sub-Inspector Arshad Imam Ansari, stationed at the police station, stated that the suspicious device appears to be similar to a radiosonde used by the Indian Meteorological Department. He speculated that such devices are launched into the air with large balloons to collect weather data, and it is likely that its hydrogen gas balloon burst at a high altitude, causing it to descend to the ground.

The police assured villagers that the device is completely safe and there is no need for alarm. Officials have also safely removed its battery. The relevant Meteorological Department has been informed about the incident. The police clarified that final information about the device will only be available after confirmation from the weather department.
