ANCHORAGE, Alaska – The U.S. Geological Survey says the earthquake Friday morning was centered about 7 miles north of Alaska’s largest city.
An Associated Press reporter working in downtown Anchorage saw cracks in a 2-storey building after the quake. It was unclear whether there were injuries.
People went back inside buildings after the earthquake but a smaller aftershock a short time later sent them running back into the streets again.
UPDATE: Tsunami warning has been cancelled.
