An earthquake has hit San Francisco with people reporting buildings shaking and being jolted awake.
The magnitude 3.5 earthquake was "felt across much of the bay", according to Dr Judith Hubbard of Cornell Earth and Atmospheric Sciences.
Seismic maps show it occurred 11 miles south of the major north California city. AccuWeather reported it struck just after 6am Pacific Daylight Time, or 2pm GMT.
