Earthquake off Malibu California coast felt by hundreds


August 24, 2010 |  7:26 am

Hundreds of people reported feeling a 4.0 earthquake that struck off the coast of Malibu Monday night, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

The USGS's "Did You Feel It?" survey found that the quake was felt along the coast, with high responses in Santa Monica, parts of Los Angeles, Marina del Rey, Playa del Rey and Malibu. It was also strongly felt in the South Bay, notably Hermosa Beach and Redondo Beach, and in the Ventura County cities of Newbury Park and Moorpark.

The quake struck at 10:42 p.m. around the Channel Islands and northwest of Malibu. The epicenter was about 50 miles south of Oxnard.

No aftershocks were reported, and no damage has been found.
