Mysuru: It was neither an earthquake nor a quarry blast. The loud sound that was heard at around 12.45 pm yesterday was in fact, a ‘Sonic Boom’ created by a Supersonic Jet. Due to the loud sound, rumours spread that there was an earthquake.
Panicked residents, especially from Kuvempunagar, Saraswathipuram, V.V. Puram, Railway Yard, Paduvarahalli, Yadavagiri and Bannimantap, even complained that the vessels in their houses shook and fell off the shelves.
