Polk County 911 reported that they had received a couple of calls from the Fish Creek area regarding a loud ‘boom’ in the area.
An officer was sent to check out the area but was unable to locate anything suspicious.
While authorities don’t know what the noise might have been, similar experiences in the past have turned out to possibly be a sonic boom from a passing military aircraft.
Discussions on Facebook and online chat boards said the noise occurred around 9:30 p.m.
