12-11-2011- A 6.5 magnitude earthquake strikes just 100 miles outside of Mexico City in the state of Guerrero, even shaking resorts in Acapulco. It is said the quake was felt in nearly nine of Mexico's state, and claimed 3 lives. These lives were claimed by caving rooftops, and car accidents caused by falling rocks. Many other residents were frightened by the swaying buildings and waited outside, hoping for the best.
The USGS reports the quake occurred at a depth of 40.3 miles.
