Wayne Lippard knows the odds are “astronomical,” but he’s convinced his 7-year-old son was struck by a small meteorite while playing in the driveway of the family’s Florida home.

Lippard, of Loxahatchee, told FoxNews.com that his son Steven was enjoying his new toolbox in the family’s driveway on Saturday when he was struck in the head by something unusual, causing a small gash that later required three staples to close.

“He’s playing in the driveway and I walk into the house and about four minutes later, he comes to the window screaming,” Lippard said Wednesday.
