A 6.2-magnitude earthquake struck northern Chile early Sunday, the U.S. Geological Survey reported.
The epicenter was in Chile's Tarapaca region, near the borders with Peru and Bolivia. There were no immediate reports of damage or injuries. The quake hit at a depth of nearly 88 kilometers (55 miles), according to USGS. It was closest to the city of Tacna, Peru, which is about 93 kilometers (58 miles) from the epicenter. The Chilean city of Arica is about 110 kilometers (68 miles) from where the quake hit.
Listen CNN... if you're going to report on every single 6.0+ earthquake that's going to strike Chile, you may as well create its own little box on the front page, some sort of "Earthquake in Chile!" graphic with a running summary.
There are hundreds of tremors PER DAY in Chile. Obviously they go unreported. Around here you may think a 6.anything is a big deal, but down there it's not. There's a sizeable shake down there at least every few weeks, especially in the north.
Reporting a 6.2 in the middle of nowhere...? Of course there are no reports of damage, unless a few rocks shifted in the Atacama. There aren't even any trees around to complain.
