7.0 Magnitude Earthquake Strikes Mexico

Scary scenes across Mexico as a powerful earthquake struck near Acapulco, but it was felt nearly 200 miles away in Mexico City, where power was knocked out in a neighborhood after an explosion caused by the shaking. The US Geological Survey says the quake measured 7.0 and hit about 10 miles away from the popular resort city. It caused buildings to sway and boulders to fall from the mountains. Inside Edition Digital’s Mara Montalbano has more.

I feel extremely sorry México. Really hoping this doesn’t get worse best wishes and blessings to everyone from México hopefully in God’s willing hopefully everyone is safe and people don’t have to suffer badly

"Just one person died" I hate the way that sounds. That one person has a family, life, friends and future. Imagine dying in a twist of fate and being quickly written off as "just one person died". So sad. I know its the way of the world but it just breaks my heart.

That must have been super terrifying. I feel bad for all those who lost property, but at least the casualty count was kept low.

I'm glad the casualties were so low, it could've been so much worse

7.0 and not a single collapse and a single casualty? That's pretty impressive not gonna lie

[theavastark]

The world's literally having a natural disaster almost everyday

[Sxudi]

I’m glad Mexico City has been able to improve its architecture to the point that only one life was lost and it wasn’t to a collapse.
