> COLORADO SPRINGS - Was it lightning, some sort of space rock, or ice from a plane?? Fire investigators cannot rule anything out as the cause of a hole in the roof of Red Rock Lounge at 31st and Colorado Avenue in Colorado Springs.

> "I saw some insulation sitting on the table and I looked up and there's a hole in my ceiling," said Red Rock Lounge owner Karol Sandvig.? Sandvig noticed the hole when she first walked into her bar, then she saw a note from her bartender.? "Karol, I had to call the cops because something came through the roof and there was a loud boom," said a note from Bartender Tammy Newland.
>
> Firefighters got the call at 11:30pm Wednesday.? They told Newland the boom was heard from their station a few streets away.? "It scared everybody.? Everybody was off their seats pretty quick. I don't think I've seen some of the people in here move that quick," said Newland.

> But the big question is, what caused this massive boom and 3-inch hole in the ceiling?? "We tried to rule out things such as lightning, something falling from the sky like a piece of space rock like a small meteorite and we weren't able to rule out anything," said Colorado Springs Fire Department Battalion Chief Steven Dubay.
>
> STORMTRACKER 13 Chief Meteorologist Matt Meister says he was at the station until about 1:00AM and did not see any lightning.? It could be a space rock, but investigators have seen no sign of a rock.? And the hole is too big to be from a bullet.

> Sandvig says the hole in her ceiling will not ruin their New Year's Eve celebration.? The landlord said he will be out to fix the hole.
