A 4.6-magnitude earthquake that originated near Malibu rattled Long Beach at 1:47 p.m. Friday.
No damage or injuries had been reported as of 2:17 p.m., but the city’s public safety teams were working to assess local facilities as a precautionary measure.
The temblor epicentered 7 miles outside of Malibu near the coast at a depth of 13 kilometers, according to USGS.
The quake was initially reported as a 4.7-magnitude, then a 4.5 but is now listed as a 4.6, according to the United States Geological Survey. Several, small aftershocks were also felt, according to the USGS.
The earthquake occurred less than two hours after a 5.7 magnitude quake struck Hawaii, according to USGS reports.
Los Angeles County Fire Department and the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department’s Malibu officials quickly indicated there were no immediate reports of injuries or property damage.
The Los Angeles City Fire Department went into “earthquake mode,” in which crews fan out to survey the entire city, but initial indications were no reports of damage. The LAFD’s procedure following a quake is to check transportation infrastructures such as freeway overpasses, large places of assemblage and apartment buildings, dams and power-lines.
