LOS ANGELES — A moderate earthquake rattled Southern California Saturday, shaking buildings in downtown Los Angeles and the surrounding suburbs.
According to the US Geological Survey, a magnitude 4.1 quake struck around 8:07am local time, near Devore, in San Bernardino County. The epicenter was 49 miles (78km) east of downtown Los Angeles.
A short time later, at least one milder aftershock struck the same region.
There were no reports of damage or injuries, but the quake rattled buildings around downtown Los Angeles. Several residents took to Twitter and said they were shaken out of bed.
“We felt it pretty good — rattled everything and noisy,” a woman who lives in San Bernardino County said in a tweet to myFOXla.com.
Southern California is no stranger to earthquakes. It sits on the San Andreas Fault and the region is prone to strong tremors.
