By Associated Press, Updated: Thursday, September 15, 3:18 AM

The U.S. Geological Survey has registered a magnitude 6.0 earthquake that hit off the coast of Cuba.

The quake happened early Thursday at 4:43 a.m. local time about 25 miles off Cuba�s coast and 375 miles southeast of Cuba�s capital Havana.


USGS geophysicist Randy Baldwin says earthquakes are common in that area of the sea and no tsunami warnings have been issued. He also said the quake wasn�t expected to cause damage on land, citing its remoteness.
