A second major earthquake has struck Mexico just days after the first killed two and caused major damage in the capital. The latest on Thursday hit Michoacan, a region on the coast of Mexico, with tremors of 6.8.
According to The United States Geological Survey (USGS), the quake hit at 6.16am and witnesses said buildings in Mexico City, roughly 370km from Michoacan, shook as the earthquake alarm was sounding. People on Twitter also reported feeling the effects in Guadalajara, roughly 260km from Michoacan.
As reported by the Express, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) warned that there may be aftershocks over the next few days, and advised locals to stay away from damaged buildings. It has not issued a tsunami warning.
