A 6.9-magnitude earthquake struck Mexico’s Gulf of California on Thursday, the U.S. Geological Survey reported.
The quake, which registered at a depth of 6.2 miles (10 kilometers), was centered between southern Baja California and the Mexican state of Sinaloa, about 65 miles from the city of Los Mochis in Sinaloa, the USGS said.
There were no immediate reports of major damage, though residents in the area were shaken up.
The fire department had not received any calls for emergencies in the immediate aftermath of the quake.
