Three Strong Earthquakes Hit Chile

Three strong earthquakes hit Chile Thursday morning. The first quake, a 7.2 magnitude, struck at 11:39 a.m. just as the country was swearing in new president Sebastian Pinera.

A 6.9 magnitude followed 16 minutes later. The third, a 6.0 magnitude, struck 27 minutes later. All three earthquakes were located within 90 miles of Chile’s capital, Santiago. There were no immediate reports of damages or injuries.

The temblors are the strongest aftershocks to hit Chile since February’s 8.8. magnitude earthquake, which killed hundreds of people and produced a tsunami.
