Don't know about the source but it sounds like fun!

Locals in Okotoks (approximately 30km south of Calgary) are reporting 
the discovery of wreckage from the recently downed UARS (Upper 
Atmosphere Research Satellite), including a large piece that left a 
substantial crater and early estimates suggest a debris field extending 
to the north east of there.

In addition, apparent video showing pieces of the burning satellite 
passing over Okotoks is already on YouTube

Best wishes
