Shortly after 11 a.m. The Selma News office in Kenly heard a big crashing noise that shook the office windows.

Several people in town were seen stepping outside of office buildings to see what happened.

Calls to Selma Town Hall and neighboring towns of Pine Level, and Micro, and Wilson's Mills showed that they heard the sound too. Police officers in several towns are checking into the noise which some say could possibly be a sonic boom, but that it had a different sound from other sonic booms they have heard.

A resident 2 miles east of Kenly towards Fremont said it shook the windows of his house.

Johnston County Emergency Services said they had received a couple call but did not know at this time what could have caused it.

If anyone has any information on the sound please contact the News office at 919-965-4343.
