Pithampur / Mhow (Madhya Pradesh): An iron ball weighing around one tonne flew into the air for about 400 metres from a factory located in Industrial Area Sector 3 here and landed on the roof of another factory.

The two sections have since been closed due to the heavy damage. People are surprised at this incident as to how such a heavy ball can fly such a great distance.
