A 3.6 magnitude earthquake was felt widely in the West Los Angeles area and areas of downtown June 7, at 2:17 a.m., Monday morning when people were asleep. According to the US Geological Survey Website, the location of the small earthquake was in Santa Monica Bay, five miles away from Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach. No injuries or damage has been reported and there are no reports of aftershocks.
The US Geological Survey website (USGS) recorded hundreds of hits from respondents saying they felt the quake mainly people in oceanfront communities but some from central Los Angeles about 20 miles east.
Santa Monica police spokesman Blake says he felt a "very brief and mild jolt," but had not received any calls from the public. One resident named Christopher Knight, a Scottsdale, Ariz, resident visiting in Marina del Ray, says the jolt lasted about a second. "It was very short shift from left to right."
As of now there is still no complete and exact information about the shocks that occurred in santa monica.
Let's pray a blessing of peace, protection and safety for the people in the whole world.
