6.3 Magnitude Earthquake Strikes Chile

Santiago, Chile (AHN) - A powerful 6.3 magnitude temblor struck offshore northern Chile on Tuesday, according to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS).

The tremor comes a week after the region was shaken by a major 7.7 magnitude earthquake, which killed two and injured 15,000.

The quake struck at 93 miles north of Antofagasta city of Chile in the same vicinity where last Wednesday's temblor hit.

There were no casualties immediately reported.
