Update: The epicenter was in Ridgecrest, CA, the same location as the July 4th shaker. This one, though, was much stronger at 7.1 magnitude. That's larger than the magnitude of the 1994 Northridge earthquake. lat.ms/2YzaA3X
Correction: This video was not shot at the Staples Center. NBA's Sumer League games are played at The Thomas & Mack Center at UNLV. This means the 7.1 magnitude earthquake stopped game play in Las Vegas.
L.A. residents didn't receive a ShakeAlertLA warning before the July 4 earthquake because the shaking wasn't strong enough within L.A. County's borders. But, today's quake was stronger at 6.9. Did you get an alert today? lat.ms/2FSY4FiUpdate:
