They are claiming an aircraft broke the sound barrier. I don't think the ground shakes like that when that happens, does it?
I'm no expert on the subject, but I think that only happens if the jet is at a very low altitude. It makes no sense to me. Sounds like a cover story.
Edit: So looks like it was either multiple jets, or possibly a missile that intercepted a Cessna plane going down. The military scrambled jets in response because they detected the plane going down and unresponsive.

A lot of the commenters on the local news page seem to agree with you. I truly do not know, but we felt it here and it was a helluva boom.
It did not sound like a sonic boom. It felt like a distant explosion. I'm surprised at how far the sound and vibration travelled. Shook windows at the Smithsonian in Arlington AND Potomac Mills in Woodbridge.
Well from what I'm gathering, this is what happened:
The military scrambled multiple jets in response because they detected the plane going down and unresponsive.

Who's private jet was that? Some multi millionaires or billionaires. It's not a cheap plane.
I used to live next to an air force base in the lonely wilds of TX. I had a jet do a low sonic boom over me (couple hundred feet maybe). It knocked me to the ground. I'm not sure if it knocked me to the ground out of fear, or out of ground or air movement, but it was so powerful of an "explosion" all my senses went haywire and I found myself on the ground.
A low boom is no small deal.

There was a Cessna crash as well supposedly the plane they were chasing
