A 5.7-magnitude earthquake rattled Mataram and West Lombok on Sunday sending frightened people into the streets but there were no immediate reports of injuries or damage.
The Meteorology and Geophysics Agency (BMG) reported on its website that the earthquake had a magnitude of 5.7 and was centered 87 kilometers northwest of Sumbawa Island, West Nusa Tenggara.
"The tremor was pretty bad. We all fled from our homes because of it," Sudiari, a housewife in West Lombok, said. | |
