The flash of a meteor fall was seen near to a volcano in the Philippines on Monday.

The landing was caught on a Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology webcam as the Mayon volcano was experiencing a low-level eruption.

The institute said the meteor had disintegrated during its plunge through the atmosphere and did not strike the slopes of the Mayon.
