This video is from another building cam Nizhny Tagil [map], a town just north of Yekaterinberg. The flash of light is stunning.
Via Russia Today:
According to unconfirmed reports, the meteorite was intercepted by an air defense unit at the Urzhumka settlement near Chelyabinsk. A missile salvo reportedly blew the meteorite to pieces at an altitude of 20 kilometers

This video doesn't actually show the meteorite, but you can see the blast of light. It is from a building's security camera in Chelyabinsk.
This may be the best video we've seen yet. The driver says, "What the f*** is that? Is that a f***ing meteorite?"
