Magnitude 5.7 quake shakes Italy’s Adriatic coast, but causes no major damage

A strong earthquake of magnitude 5.7 struck off Italy’s Adriatic coast early on Wednesday, but caused no serious damage or injuries, according to initial reports.



The quake happened shortly after 7 am (0600 GMT), and was felt as far away as Rome on the other side of the country, and in the northern regions of Veneto, Friuli, and Trentino.

“No injuries at the moment,” a spokesman for Italy's Civil Protection told Reuters, as the agency tweeted that checks on the ground were continuing.
