Sharjah 24 – WAM: A magnitude 5.1 earthquake hit Southern California north of Los Angeles on Sunday, rocking much of the region as residents hunkered down for the approach of Tropical Storm Hilary, Reuters reported.
There were no immediate reports of damage or injury from the quake, which struck at 2:41 pm local time (2141 GMT), roughly 7 km (4.35 miles) southeast of the Southern California community of Ojai in Ventura County. It was followed by several smaller aftershocks.

The US Tsunami Warning System said there was no threat of a tsunami from the earthquake.
