Calaveras County Sheriff's Detectives are investigating a loud explosive sound that was reported in several communities yesterday.
According to the Sheriff's Office, at around 8:50 am, the Sheriff's dispatch received multiple 9-11 calls from San Andreas, Mokelumne Hill, Mountain Ranch, Railroad Flat and West Point. All of the callers said that heard a single loud explosion type noise, but there were no reports of fire or smoke being seen and no specific location given.
Several callers also stated that a plane had flown overhead just prior to the loud explosion and they suspected it was a sonic boom. Sheriff's Dispatch checked with the FAA and Calaveras County Airport who had no reported planes in distress in the area.
The Sheriff's Office will also follow-up with local military contacts in an attempt to confirm the possible sonic boom that was heard by many county residents.

The World for People who Think
Found a report of anothr mysterious big bang in Southern Australia, this one was said to be accopmanied by a plethora of different coloured lights in the sky.
"WAS it an earthquake? Did Tower Hill erupt into action? Did a meteor crash to earth or was it a alien invasion?
The 'big bang' that was heard about 1am this morning had residents talking and people hypothesising on Facebook after reports of an "explosion" shaking homes in Winslow, Warrnambool and Terang.
This was allegedly accompanied by flashes of light in the sky that were variously described as being pink, orange and yellow, and seen as far away as Mortlake and Port Fairy."
