An unidentified flying object was seen crashing into a mountain in central Queensland this morning.
Police are on their way to the remote site near Takilberan Creek in southwest Gladstone, but details about the incident are still unclear.
A spokeswoman told ninemsn police had received a report of "something falling from the sky that resulted in a fire".
According to the The Courier Mail newspaper, witnesses saw "a bright flash and explosion" leading to speculation it could have been a meteorite or space junk.
The possibility of a plane crash has been ruled out as there were no emergency calls received from aircraft.
An emergency services spokesman said fire services had been notified of the explosion but had not attended the scene.
