Quake Hits Central California

Saturday, October 08, 2005

CAMBRIA, Calif. —  An earthquake shook central California early Saturday about five miles northeast of San Simeon, home to Hearst Castle.

The magnitude-4.2 temblor hit at 5:17 a.m., according to a preliminary report from the U.S. Geological Survey.

Sgt. Rex Reece of the San Luis Obispo County sheriff's Cambria station said there were no injuries or reports of structural damage as a direct result of the quake.

The temblor came after a magnitude-4.4 quake hit the area Oct. 2. San Simeon is located about 200 miles northwest of Los Angeles.
