Indonesia Earthquake Kills at Least 3
An earthquake with a magnitude of at least 6.6 rocked the northern tip of Sumatra Island in Indonesia on Wednesday, killing three and injuring at least 25 people. Injuries resulted from people being struck by collapsed buildings. The death toll is expected to rise and communications are down in much of the area. No tsunamis were reported as a result of the quake, which some reports are saying was closer to 7.5 in magnitude. Indonesia is located in the so-called "Pacific Ring of Fire," one of the top seismically active regions in the world.
