Maxico, Feb 17: A 7.2 magnitude earthquake hit south and central Mexico on Friday, causing people to flee swaying buildings and office towers in the country’s capital, where residents were still jittery after a deadly quake five months ago.
Crowds of people gathered on Mexico City’s central Reforma Avenue as well as on streets in Oaxaca, nearer the quake’s epicenter, which was in a rural area close to Mexico’s Pacific coast and the border with Guerrero state.
More reports awaited.
