I have heard of no-one finding any tiles, actually. These things are so brittle that I think they get smashed to very little pieces at impact with the ground over 100 mph. The places where they do remain in one piece are probably over water and soft ground (woods?) where they can remain unnoticed longer. If such a tile strikes a house or a road there may not be much left of it. But yes, it would be strange that nothing was found at all, not even small pieces.
