It was on my local news but I was just getting up and I missed details. I am just curious if anyone knows anything about it.

A Navy spokesman says the 10-pound practice bomb scraped a warehouse's concrete exterior wall, causing "extremely minimal damage."
The F/A-18C Hornet was returning to Oceana Naval Air Station after a training mission at a Navy bombing range in North Carolina. The Navy says it dropped the bomb as it was landing. The jet was undamaged and landed safely.
A Navy board will investigate and determine whether the pilot should be punished. The Navy did not release the pilot's name.
The bomb was a BDU-48, which carries an explosive charge that emits smoke upon impact.

It was all over CNN yesterday. No one was hurt and no structures damaged.
