BAR HARBOR, Maine (AP) – An earthquake caused some rocks to fall onto a road in Acadia National Park and burst some water pipes Monday night. No injuries were reported, authorities said.

The quake reached a magnitude of 4.2 and was felt at about 8 p.m., said Jeff Chamberlain, dispatcher for the Bar Harbor Police Department. The department received notice from the U.S. Geological Survey about the quake, he said.

The park road was closed, Chamberlain said.

Mount Desert Island residents experienced a Magnitude 3.5 quake on Sept. 22. Before that, the state recorded a 3.8-Magnitude earthquake in the northern part of the state on July 14.
