A Bosnian man insists he is being targeted by extra-terrestrials after his house was hit by meteorites six times in three years.

Radivoje Lajic, 50, who lives in the northern village of Gornji Lajici, believes aliens are responsible for the meteor strikes.

"I am obviously being targeted by extra-terrestrials," he insists. "I don't know what I have done to annoy them but there is no other explanation that makes sense.

"The chance of being hit by a meteorite is so small that getting hit six times has to be deliberate."

The strikes, which experts at Belgrade University have confirmed are all meteorites, always happen when it is raining heavily.

"I have no doubt I am being targeted by aliens," the Metro reports Lajic as saying. "They are playing games with me. I don't know why they are doing this. When it rains I can't sleep for worrying about another strike."

Lajic has had to reinforce his roof with a steel girder for fear of the strikes causing lasting damage.

He paid for the girder by selling one of the meteorites to a university in the Netherlands.
