(VIDEO) “Space Debris” (Maybe?) Slams Into Portsmouth, RI Mansion and Ignites Massive Blaze!!!

Wow! In a scene reminiscent of a sci-fi thriller, a massive fireball, suspected to be ‘space debris’ (maybe?), crashed into a mansion on Sea Spray Lane in Portsmouth, RI late Tuesday night, igniting a fire that destroyed the home and damaged two neighboring properties.

Surveillance footage from a nearby residence captured the dramatic moment the glowing object fell from the sky and struck the mansion, setting off a blaze that spread rapidly. Although fire crews responded quickly, the mansion was fully engulfed in flames and ultimately destroyed.

No one was injured in the fire.

So what do we think it is?

@newportbuzz A sprawling 9,000 square foot mansion on Sea Spray Lane in Portsmouth caught fire Tuesday night just before 8pm, as firefighters from Portsmouth, Middletown, and Newport race to control the inferno. The massive home, which towers over the exclusive neighborhood, appears to be a total loss, with flames gutting the property in what onlookers are calling a devastating scene. The cause of the fire remains unknown, and so far, there’s no word on any injuries. The home was under construction and vacant at the time of the fire. #portsmouthri #newportbuzz #fire ♬ original sound – Newport Buzz
