KING 5: Mystery ice ball crashes through roof of Kent home


KING 5 News

A Kent, Wash. family arrived home yesterday to discover a gaping hole in their roof, apparently caused by a chunk of ice.
The ice had slammed through the ceiling of Troy Halte's home and landed on his eight-year-old daughter Breeze's bed.

But no one yet knows where the ice came from.

The incident left ice crystals all over the girl's bed as well as outside in the Halte's yard.

Troy Halte says his yard and house were peppered with ice balls.

3. I'm just guessing here

but years ago there was a similar incident with blue ice. It turned out to be from an airplane's toilet! How gross.

Edit: Not fast enough, damn.
