TIJUANA (Reuters) – A strong 6.9 magnitude earthquake struck in Baja 
California, Mexico on Sunday, rocking buildings and panicking residents as far 
away as Tijuana and Los Angeles and Palm Springs, California.

Mexican officials had no immediate reports of damage or injuries.

"I'm shaking like a leaf ... the pool water was just going everywhere," said 
Jean Nelson in Indio, California outside of Palm Springs.

A Reuters witness in Tijuana said cars in a parking lot outside of a building 
could be seen jolting with the quake.

The quake was felt in downtown Los Angeles, witnesses said.

The quake struck at 15:40 Pacific time (6:40 p.m. EDT) 16 miles south southwest 
of Guadalupe Victoria at a depth of 20 miles. The quake was 108 miles east 
southeast of Tijuana.

Multiple aftershocks were reported.
