The epicenter of the earthquake was just 10 miles east of Tiquisate, a town 80 miles south of the capital Guatemala City, according to the country’s disaster agency, the National Coordinator for Disaster Reduction.

The earthquake, which occurred at 8:30 a.m. local time, triggered landslides on roads, some slight damage to houses, and power outages, officials said.

The initial quake was followed by two aftershocks of above magnitude 4.0 in the region. (ILKHA)
