Adding to the effect, power in nearby homes flickered, the 7 train experienced major service disruptions, Riker’s Island was forced to rely on backup generators and La Guardia airport was plunged into darkness.
According to the NYPD and Con Edison, a few transformers at the Con Ed substation on 20th Avenue and 32nd Street in Astoria tripped and caused a fire at a power, which was described as the source of the eerie blue light. The fire was quickly brought under control, but not before thousands of New Yorkers took to the streets (or social media) to wonder what the hell was going on, NBC News reported.
