Reports indicated that a 6.1 to 6.5-magnitude earthquake hit Guatemala's Pacific coastline, near the border with Mexico, on November 11th. The tremor, which hit just days after a 7.4-magnitude quake on November 7th killed at least 50 people and displaced hundreds, sent people in the area panicking to streets as buildings were evacuating. Shakes were also felt in El Salvador and the Mexican southeastern state of Chiapas. No immediate damage were reported, however.
