Crayfish raining from the sky? Wouldn’t want to get hit by one of them, especially if it was alive and, no doubt, angry after its unexpected fall!
The man was standing in front of a hotel though, so there is always the chance it was aimed at him by a mate on an upper floor.
Yes, I know there may have been other sightings, but these people were reporting things falling from the sky that they ‘thought were crayfish’. These witnesses couldn’t have been to close to the action.
It is quite hard to mistake a crayfish for another thing, even if it is splattered on the pavement.
