Narrative:

During level cruise flight at FL220 the right #2 engine shut down with no warning or caution messages. I estimate the right engine went from normal operating cruise power to 0% N2 in about 5 seconds along with a slight aircraft vibration. After the engine had completely shut down by itself, we got the first warning message on the EICAS. At this point the radios were xferred and the PNF accomplished the appropriate checklists. An emergency was declared with ATC as well as a divert to cle airport as this was the nearest suitable airport. The flight attendant was advised as well as the passenger and our dispatch was notified by radio. The landing in cle was uneventful and we taxied back to the gate. The passenger were calm as they exited the aircraft and thanked us for a job well done. This was then written up in the aircraft's maintenance logbook and maintenance was contacted.

I ESTIMATE THE R ENG WENT FROM NORMAL OPERATING CRUISE PWR TO 0% N2 IN ABOUT 5 SECONDS ALONG WITH A SLIGHT ACFT VIBRATION. AFTER THE ENG HAD COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN BY ITSELF, WE GOT THE FIRST WARNING MESSAGE ON THE EICAS. AT THIS POINT THE RADIOS WERE XFERRED AND THE PNF ACCOMPLISHED THE APPROPRIATE CHKLISTS. AN EMER WAS DECLARED WITH ATC AS WELL AS A DIVERT TO CLE ARPT AS THIS WAS THE NEAREST SUITABLE ARPT. THE FLT ATTENDANT WAS ADVISED AS WELL AS THE PAX AND OUR DISPATCH WAS NOTIFIED BY RADIO.
