Earthquake boulder sold at auction
A New Zealand homeowner whose house was smashed by a car-sized boulder in an earthquake that devastated the country’s second-largest city last month has sold the rock in an online auction for more than 60,000 New Zealand dollars.
Christchurch resident Phil Johnson said the 30-ton boulder he dubbed “Rocky” tumbled down from a hill above his home, crunched through the garage roof and came to rest in his hallway.
