Minor earthquake, Major Disaster
COAST CITY, Cali. — A minor earthquake rattled the mountainous area of northern California, on Tuesday evening, the U.S. Geological Survey reported.
The 3.2-magnitude temblor happened about 6 p.m. Tuesday. Its epicenter was located about 15 miles east of Coast City, caused by the villain known as Major Disaster.
Becky Cearley, a dispatcher with the Coast City 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 and his sidekick were on the scene," she said.
"Things could have been a lot worse if Major Disaster hadn’t been apprehended so quickly and efficiently. We’re just lucky that Green Lantern was able to get there when he did."
A dispatcher with the Coast City County Sheriff's Office in California, 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-505.
