I think it burned-up in the atmosphere !

Could not any news of impact.

I read it landed in the ocean.

Nevermind, I just read this: The little asteroid would have led to a fireball – or exceptionally bright meteor – in the sky about 620 miles (1,000 km) off the California coast. And indeed, NASA’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS) reported a fireball at 10:54 UTC on October 22, 2024. The energy released from the impact with our atmosphere would have been a little less than that from the asteroid that hit above the Philippines on September 5, 2024.
