A moderate earthquake shook a remote desert area east of San Diego Sunday, but there were no immediate reports of damages or injuries, the U.S. Geological Survey confirmed.
The magnitude 4.5 quake struck at 3:07 p.m. and was centered about 11 miles southeast of Ocotillo Wells, according to the USGS.
The USGS says shaking was felt across much of San Diego County and along the U.S.-Mexico border.
A sheriff’s lieutenant said there were no immediate reports of damages or injuries.
