A 6.1 magnitude earthquake struck near western Cuba on Monday, shaking buildings in Havana and rattling people across the Sunshine State, from Miami to Jacksonville. No injuries or damage were immediately reported.

The quake struck at a depth of six miles in waters just west of the Cuban capital, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. Flavia Pupo, a manager at the Pinar del Río hotel, in Pinar del Rio, described how the building shook and caused some fear.
