A spokesman for Strathclyde Police said the force had been "inundated" with calls about a bright object in the sky across the west of Scotland. A Durham Police spokeswoman said a number of calls came in around 9.45pm from concerned members of public who had seen a "bright light or a fire in the sky" and believed it may have been incidents involving an aircraft. "
It has been confirmed with air traffic control that there are no incidents of aircraftin difficult and nothing registered on radar," she said. "
The sightings are believed to be either an asteroid burning out or similar which has been restricted to the upper atmosphere only." Grampian Police said reports of people seeing a "flare or a bright object with a tail" were received from across the region. And Dumfries and Galloway Constabulary said numerous calls were made about a "large ball of fire in the sky" across Annandale and Eskdale.

(RNN) - People in southern Michigan reported a bright light in the night sky, with some reports of shaking buildings.
The fireball was seen in the skies, making a loud sound at about 8:15 p.m. Tuesday in the metro Detroit area, according to the Detroit Free Press.
The U.S. Geological Survey said the boom from the likely meteor registered a 2.0 in magnitude about 7 kilometers from Saint Clair Shores, MI.
The phenomenon was also seen across several states from Wisconsin to Ohio and up into southwestern Ontario, Canada, WOOD reported.
Images of the object were captured above Windsor, Ontario.
The National Weather Service office in Detroit confirmed Tuesday night that the flash was likely a meteor.
"We continue to monitor feeds from astronomical agencies for official confirmation of a meteor," the NWS said.
NASA said a satellite that monitors lightning might have detected the fireball from the likely meteor.
The response to the possible meteor overwhelmed the site of the American Meteor Society.
Ingham County Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Managment asked the public in a Facebook post to quit calling 911 about what was likely a fireball from a meteor.
People took to social media to share what they saw.

Residents of a Far North holiday hotspot were treated to a flashy display of space fireworks late last night.
Cable Bay resident Sheryl Day was out on her deck at about 10.45pm when she saw what she described as a "large, intense yellow fireball, tinged with green".
"Out of the corner of my eye, I saw something bright, and as I turned, this great thing, almost like a fireball, just whizzed by.
"While Day frequently sees meteors when gazing at the night sky, these were typically distant and fleeting.
But this object, she said, seemed much closer as it "wooshed down and then just disappeared".
Others from around the area had also noticed the late-night spectacle, she said.
University of Auckland head of physics Professor Richard Easther said meteors were a "reasonably common" sight in our night skies.
"You'd get one of those a day, somewhere on the planet. It's not something that's a huge deal in its own right, but it is an interesting thing."
The most notable such event in recent times was a fireball that lit up the night sky over the North Island on February 11, 2015, as it soared through the air at 20 times the speed of a bullet.
American Meteor Society received over 400 reports about a fireball over Manitoba, Canada near the border with Minnesota around 9:25pm local time on January 4, 2018
