Earthquake Shakes Southwest Alabama

The 3.3 magnitude earthquake occurred at 2:11 a.m., and was centered in Clarke County near Coffeeville.

"My whole bed, my windows, everything was shaking. I thought my roof was going to fall in," said Faye Cotten, the mayor of Coffeeville, population about 360.

Another Coffeeville resident said, "I jumped up and said 'Lord, what was that'? We had no idea what was happening. I thought 'Who could be dynamiting at this time of night?'"
