A reported 5.9-magnitude earthquake rattled the northeast Tuesday afternoon with tremors felt as far as New York. Residents in New Rochelle reported feeling the shake.

“Scared the hell out of me,” said Lynn Fanelli. “(my) living room shook, chandelier swayed, and (I) heard minor cracking in my wall,” she said on The Daily New Rochelle’s facebook page.

The New Rochelle Police Department had no reporting incidents of an earthquake.

”(my) Basement walls shook as I was working at my desk,” Barb Grondin Francella said.

Janet LaBarbera-Kahmann also felt it at her location.
