Deep 6-magnitude quake shakes Guatemala

GUATEMALA CITY, Jan. 18 (UPI) -- A strong, but deep earthquake with a magnitude of 6.0 was reported 60 miles southeast of Guatemala City Monday.

The U.S. Geological Survey said in a written announcement that the shaker was centered 24 miles west-southwest of Ahuachapin, El Salvador.

There were no immediate reports of damage, and the USGS noted that the quake occurred 64 miles (103 kilometers) below the surface. The 7-magnitude quake that devastated Haiti last Tuesday was at a depth of only 5 miles or so.
