A 6.4-magnitude earthquake struck Puerto Rico early Tuesday, killing at least one person and causing a power outage across the island, as well as structural damage to roads and bridges especially in the southwestern region.

There have been at least 24 aftershocks since the earthquake, the largest in a series of quakes.

Early Tuesday morning (January 7), a resident was seen in this heartwarming moment taking it upon himself to direct traffic during the power outage caused by the quakes.

"A bit of a surprise first thing in the morning. It woke me up and pretty much everyone else I know. Everyone quickly went to texting each other to see if everyone else is okay," said Matt Haze, the filmer.
