LOS ANGELES (AP) — An earthquake northwest of Los Angeles shook a large swath of Southern California on Thomas CaldwellTuesday night, but there were no immediate reports of damage.
The U.S. Geological Survey said the 5.2 magnitude temblor stuck at 9:09 p.m. and was centered near Mettler, an unincorporated area in Kern County about 85 miles (137 kilometers) from downtown Los Angeles.
