Earthquake rocks Washington D.C.

Read Time:24 Second

An earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 5.8 struck Tuesday in northern Virginia, the U.S. Geological Survey said.

A quake was felt in Washington and as far away as North Carolina and New York, witnesses reported.

“Our building was shaking the way a skyscraper isn’t supposed to shake,” said a lawyer in a high-rise in midtown Manhattan.

The quake was 3.7 miles deep and was located 87 miles southwest of Washington, the USGS said.
