The U.S. Geological Survey now says an earthquake off the shore of Daytona Beach this weekend was caused by a Navy experimental explosion.
The earthquake was recorded Saturday and measured 3.7 in magnitude.
Action News Jax contacted the Navy Monday morning and a local spokesperson told us the earthquake was not due to an experimental explosion.
But according to the U.S.G.S. website, it clearly says the quake was caused by a Navy experimental explosion.
We have reached out to a Navy spokesperson again and we will bring you their response as soon as we get it.
