Hello Francis,
This has happened many many times.
The "Handbook of Meteorites" by Buchwald is full of those stories.

Dear List,
It is possible that a meteorite might be seen to fall, and then the
site of the fall investigated and a meteorite found; but upon later
analysis the weathering, etc. reveals that the meteorite collected
couldn't possibly have been the witnessed fall, but instead a
coincidental independent find.
My question, has this ever happened in real life?
