4.4 Magnitude Earthquake Shakes Los Angeles Area

A 4.4 magnitude earthquake struck near Los Angeles, California, on Monday afternoon, causing widespread shaking and startling residents across the region. The quake, which occurred at approximately 12:20 PM PST (20:20 BST), had its epicenter near Highland Park, a neighborhood in Los Angeles County close to the Hollywood sign and Griffith Observatory, according to the US Geological Survey.

The tremor was felt in several nearby cities, including Pasadena and Glendale, and extended to the coastline, affecting areas such as Manhattan Beach and El Segundo. Despite the widespread sensation of the quake, the US Geological Survey confirmed that there was no tsunami warning issued.

Officials are actively monitoring the situation for potential damage or injuries, but, as of now, no significant reports have emerged. The Los Angeles Fire Department has dispatched crews from all 106 fire stations across the city to conduct a thorough survey of the Greater Los Angeles area for structural damage or other issues.

Initially estimated as a 4.7 magnitude quake, the US Geological Survey later revised the figure to 4.4. The region has experienced several earthquakes of similar magnitude in recent weeks, including tremors in Grapevine and Bakersfield.

Residents and officials alike are on high alert as they assess the impact of the latest earthquake, with ongoing checks for any potential damage or safety concerns.
