Japan Earthquake Video: At 4:27 p.m. local time, a magnitude 7.1 earthquake tore through Kumamoto Prefecture on the island of Kyushu, its epicenter tucked near the town of Hikawa in Uki City, barely 10 kilometers below the surface. Four minutes later, before rattled residents had even caught their breath, a shallow 4.5 aftershock hit the very same spot. It was the kind of one-two punch that shook the residents deeply.
