3.5-magnitude earthquake strikes off Rancho Palos Verdes coast, USGS says

A 3.5-magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of Rancho Palos Verdes late Sunday evening, based on the United States Geological Survey.

It struck at roughly 9:40 pm simply over 14 miles off the coast, close to Catalina Island, the USGS reported.

The tremor occurred at a geographical depth of practically seven miles and, based on the USGS’s “Did You Feel It?” report, it was felt alongside the Los Angeles County shoreline and as far east as northern Orange County close to Fullerton.

There have been no reviews of accidents or injury on account of the quake.

It’s the third earthquake reported off the Southern California coast within the final week, after a 3.0 incident magnitude was reported 11 miles southeast of Port Hueneme in Ventura County and a 2.9 magnitude tremor occurred 4 miles west of Malibu.
