House bombed by frozen waste
WCX)D!NVILUi. Wash {AI*J — Leroy and
Geirl Cinnamon worn al homo watching tho
Snaillo Seohnwks on television when tho ah -
whatever you call II • almost hit tho fun.
A basketball-sized chunk of frozen sewage
erasftod through tho Cinnamons' rool Sunday,
blasting through tho colling and splattering on
the living room floor only o few feet from
where (Jerri wus sitting in front of the TV.
Officials of tho Fodoral Aviation Administra
tion suv it appears tho Cinnamons' house was
tho target of on inadvertent dlsr hnrge from an
airliner restroom
Tho waste bomb made a 3-foot by 2-loot hole
in the roof ant) coiling til the one-story house
In this northeast Seattle suburb Nonet of the
four people at home were hurt
"It made one great, big, large ke-bang. and
wo thought something had exploded," Leroy
said
Ho and his wife said firefighters who re
sponded to their call figured it had to fie one of
two things frozen airt ralt waste or a meteorite
While the second possibility was still open,
the house was quarantined and a hazardous
materials response team was r ailed in to chei k
for possible radiation
I hey treated us like we were radioactive.'
said Gerri
When tho object began to molt, nil doubts
wore removed
"It stunk r«fll bad,” Gerrl said
FAA spokesman Mike O'Conner said the
Cinnamons’ house wasn't singled out by an er
rant air crew.
A look must have developed in one of the
loilels of an airliner, ho said. At higher alli
ludes. it would have formed into ice, clinging
lo the side of the plane. On the descent into
Soattle-Tocoma International Airport, the
plane's airframe would have warmed up. caus
ing tho chunk to thaw and break loose.
O'Conner said the l-'AA is dusking flight
records to determine which plane was over the
tVoodinville area at the time the ice fell.
"We need lo find the plane and gel it fixed,”
ho said.
The Cinnamons said they storisl iho pieces
of ice in a plastic kilty-litter container in their
freezer, just in case they new! them for evi
dence.
