Meteorite Hits 14 Year Old Boy

So what are the chances of being hit by a space rock? This article from The Telegraph tells of how a 14 year german lad got struck in the hand by a falling rock. Luckily the impact didn´t kill him but the force was enough to scar him and send him spinning. There are apparently no recorded fatalities from such events, (though a dog was killed in Egypt in 1911), but plenty of examples of material damage are recorded like the storm that hit Chicago in 2003.
