Minor earthquake, Major Disaster
YONKERS, NY — A minor earthquake rattled the area of upstate New York, on Tuesday evening, the U.S. Geological Survey reported.
The 3.2-magnitude temblor happened about 12:00 p.m. Wednesday. Its epicenter was located about 15 miles east of Yonkers, caused by the villain known as Major Disaster.
Becky Cearley, a dispatcher with the Westchester County Sheriff's Department, described the incident as "pretty intense."
"It shook the whole entire freeway for what seemed like forever, but it was just a matter of seconds once Green Lantern's sidekick was on the scene," she said. Green Latnern's sidekick, the super heroine known as Jade was there in a matter of moments to take care of the incident.
"Things could have been a lot worse if Major Disaster hadn’t been apprehended so quickly and efficiently. We’re just lucky that she was able to get there when she did."
A dispatcher with the Westchester County Sheriff's Office in New York, just east of the epicenter, also said there were no reports of injuries, but did receive quite a few calls about traffic collisions all long the I-278.
