A 6.5 earthquake struck off the coast of Puerto Rico, on Monday morning.
More than seventy aftershocks have followed, with three of them being larger than 3.5.
The quake cracked floors, knocked items off shelves, knocked out power, and caused other damage, but no injuries have been reported.
No tsunami alert was issued, which caused criticism of the government, however officials note that there was no tsunami, so no need for an alert.
It was the biggest quake to hit US territory since March 2011.
