Moments ago another significant earthquake struck Mexico three days after a 7.5-magnitude earthquake killed one person and damaged hundreds of buildings. Today’s earthquake struck 96 km southwest of Apatzingan, Michoacan, Mexico at a depth of 20.7km. It is the third earthquake in Michoacan, Mexico in the last 61 hours.

The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might still be changed again later on as seismologists review their data and calculations, or else as other agencies issue their own reports.

It was felt by a huge number of people located close to the epicenter of the quake. Initial reports suggests that there is no significant damage to buildings.
