Earthquake shakes Alabama coast
FORT MORGAN, Ala. (AP) — Federal officials say a minor earthquake has shaken southern Alabama, and people more than 200 miles away have reported feeling the tremblor.
The U.S. Geological Service says the 3.5-magnitude earthquake happened at 5:15 p.m. Friday. There were no immediate reports of damage.
The epicenter was near the tip of the Fort Morgan Peninsula at the mouth of Mobile Bay in Baldwin County.
Residents in the Pensacola area of the Florida panhandle also said they felt the earthquake, as did residents as far north as Birmingham, Ala.
It's been five years since an earthquake struck within 125 miles of where Friday's earthquake hit.
