Nevada Rocked By Strong Quake


A 6.0 quake has struck the northeast corner of Nevada Thursday morning, the U.S. Geological Survey reports.

The USGS reported the quake was 6.0 magnitude and at a depth of 6.2 miles below the surface. The magnitude was lowered from 6.3 about an hour after the initial report.

The epicenter was about 150 miles from Salt Lake City, Utah.

Undersheriff Rocky Gonzalez, of Elko County, Nevada, told The Associated Press said there are reports of damage to buildings there, including one that had collapsed.

The USGS told CNN it received 59 reports from people in 40 zip codes, or about 2 million residents, who felt the quake.
