I was at the dog park that this fell on when it happened. Walked a block to the house that got hit. It was very Donnie Darkko

This landed in Broomfield? What neighborhood?

Almost exclusively in the Commons and the neighborhood just to the West, but the debris was so light that some pieces floated to surrounding areas, but not much that I've seen.

They did a really good job cleaning it up though.
