Granada rocked by earthquake

AN earthquake measuring 6.2 on the Richter scale hit Andalucia on Monday morning, the U.S. Geological Survey said.

The epicentre was 15 miles south-east of Granada, and 617km underground.

There was no immediate damage from the earthquake that struck at 12.08am.

No injuries have so far been reported.

The depth of the earthquake means it is unlikely to have caused extensive damage.
