Quick Glance: Magnitude 4.8 Earthquake Rocks New York City and Northeast US
- An unusual East Coast earthquake startled millions from New York to rural New England. Over 42 million people may have felt the midmorning quake with a preliminary magnitude of 4.8.
- While causing no widespread damage, the earthquake led to evacuations in Newark, New Jersey, and infrastructure inspections across the region. Flights were diverted, trains slowed, and tunnel traffic stopped.
- Although no major damages were reported, the earthquake caused some disruptions. The area near the epicenter experienced minor effects, including the collapse of a historic site. There were also over a dozen aftershocks reported in the region.
- President Joe Biden offered assistance, while New York City reported no major safety or infrastructure issues. Engineers emphasized that New York skyscrapers are made of high-strength materials and designed to sway slowly to withstand impacts. Even the delicately placed eggs in a sculpture at a Chinatown art gallery remained unharmed during the quake.

Quick Glance: Significant Funds Raised for Family of Slain NYPD Officer Jonathan Diller
- A substantial amount of money has been collected so far for the family of slain NYPD Officer Jonathan Diller, a wave of generosity from the general population to billionaires who are shocked by the tragedy - and tired of a faulty criminal justice system and anti-political politicians.
- Among the major donors are Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy, who pledged to adjust the impressive $750,000 raised for Diller's one-year-old son Ryan and his widow Stephanie through the online store of his website - totaling $1.5 million.
- The Silver Shield Foundation stated that they received well over 100 contributions in a single day to support Diller's family.
- Despite his severe injury, Diller managed to grab Rivera's weapon after it fell to the ground. The officer's partner fired two shots, at least one of which hit Rivera in the back, according to the police.
