(Bloomberg) -- An earthquake of 6.8 magnitude struck
Japan today, damaging a nuclear reactor, toppling houses and
sparking a fire. At least eight people were killed and more than
900 were hurt, according to the Associated Press.
The undersea temblor, centered about 250 kilometers (155
miles) northwest of Tokyo, shook buildings in the capital for
several minutes at about 10:15 a.m. local time. A second, deeper
quake of 6.8 magnitude struck 13 hours later, causing little
damage. No tsunamis were reported.
