EARTHQUAKE AFTERMATH: Footage from Manzanillo, Colima, shows the collapsed roof of a gym on the top floor of a shopping center after a deadly 7.6 magnitude earthquake hit the region.
A magnitude 7.6 earthquake shook Mexico's central Pacific coast on Monday, killing at least one person and setting off a seismic alarm in the rattled capital on the anniversary of two earlier devastating quakes.
In Coalcoman, Michoacan, near the quake's epicenter, buildings were damaged, but there were not immediate reports of injuries. "It started slowly and then was really strong and continued and continued until it started to relent," said 16-year-old Carla Cárdenas, a resident of Coalcoman. Cárdenas ran out of her family's hotel and waited with neighbors.
Nor is there a season or month for big earthquakes anywhere on the globe, Earle said. But there is a predictable thing: People seek and sometimes find coincidences that look like patterns.
