The Trumpet of the Angel Moroni Fell During the Utah Earthquake

The 5.7 magnitude earthquake that hit Utah did a bit of damage to the LDS Temple in downtown Salt Lake City.

"The trumpet on the Angel Moroni statue fell off, and there is minor displacement of some of the temple's smaller spire stones," said Daniel Woodruff, a spokesman for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
