MEXICO CITY: A powerful earthquake of magnitude 7.4 struck the coast of southern Mexico on Tuesday , killing at least one person, buckling paved roads, and setting off a tsunami in nearby Pacific coastal areas.
Miguel Candelaria, 30, was working at his computer in his family home in the Oaxaca town of Juchitan when the ground began to tremble. He ran outside with relatives, but they had to stop in the middle of the street as the pavement buckled and rocked."We couldn't walk ... the street was like chewing gum," said Candelaria, 30.
Quakes of magnitudes over 7 are major earthquakes capable of widespread, heavy damage. A 7.1 magnitude earthquake that struck central Mexico in 2017 killed 355 people in the capital and the surrounding states.
