Magnitude 5.4 quake rocks northern Italy

Saturday, January 28, 2012



ROME, Italy (AP) — A 5.4-magnitude earthquake shook northern Italy yesterday, the second such temblor this week, but there were no reports of injuries or significant damage.

Some office buildings in Milan were evacuated as a precaution, the ANSA news agency said.

The US Geological Survey and the Italian Civil Protection said the epicentre was near Parma. Residents in Milan said they felt the temblor, which lasted about 10-15 seconds.

On Wednesday, a magnitude five earthquake shook a wide area of northern Italy from Verona to Genoa. No injuries or serious damage were reported then.
