Los Angeles residents were rattled on Thursday morning by an earthquake centered near Malibu. Preliminary estimates showed it was a magnitude 4.7, according to the United States Geological Survey.
Across the region, which has been shaken by several temblors in recent months, some residents still in bed were awakened by an alert on their phones. Window coverings and shelves rattled for about 15 seconds.
The authorities were looking to determine whether there was any significant damage.
