(WSB Radio) -- An investigator with the Federal Aviation Administration will be in Hall County Friday to examine several pieces of ice that may have fallen from a airplane and damaged a local business.
No one was hurt when the baseball sized chunks of ice crashed through the roof of Welch's Tire Shop on North Main Street in Lula, a small town east of Gainesville.
10-year-old Jordan Welch, the son of shop owner Gerald Welch, tells Channel 2 Action News "satellite things up in the sky, I thought one of them done fell down in the roof."
Gerald Welch said "if somebody had been standing up under that, there's no doubt in my mind it would've killed 'em."
Lula is in the approach path for jets enroute to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport.
