A 6.4-magnitude earthquake struck the Mexico-Guatemala border just before 6 a.m. on Sunday, causing residents to flee into the streets in fear. The earthquake, initially reported by the German Research Center for Geosciences and later confirmed by the United States Geological Survey, occurred near the coast of Chiapas, Mexico. Although there were no immediate reports of significant damage, the tremor was powerful enough to cause rockfalls and drive residents from their homes. The quake was felt strongly in the region, including the Mexican border town of Suchiate, and was also reported to have caused some building collapses in Guatemala.
