Big Earthquake Hits Off Indonesia Island


Mar 28, 12:09 PM (ET)


BANGKOK, Thailand (AP) - A large earthquake struck off Indonesia's Sumatra
Island in the Andaman Sea late Monday, and the U.S. Geological Survey said
it was a major quake measuring a magnitude of 8.2.

Thai officials issued a warning of a possible tsunami, three months after a
tsunami devastated parts of Indonesia and other countries in the region. The
quake occurred at 11:09 p.m. local at a depth of nearly 19 miles, the USGS
in Golden, Colo., said.

Japan's Meteorological Agency measured the quake at magnitude 8.5.
