This can occur but we not known so many details that we can at today
said only: possible.

4 men are linked at this incident, well, but in this case we should 
have
a meteorite shower (then it's a condrite because iron only in a very 
rare events are in multiple fragments);

the photo show a rice coltivation (right ?) then the hole should be 
around 2 foots in diameter with a meteorite of 1-10 kg, a similar body 
at tipical fall speed (200 meter per second) do the same of a bazooka, 
then what occur at the body of the dead man?

Do some people saw a bolid in the air (some time a meteorite fall 
without that a bolid it's saw)?

Some week ago occured the fall of an non identified rocket from space
in Vietnam, do he occured here the same?

As you can see there are more questions that answers then we cannot
said nothing now, we shall known, perharps, the reality in the future 
day.
Best greetings.
