SYDNEY, Australia (AP) - A powerful earthquake rumbled deep below the earth's surface near the Pacific island of Vanuatu early Wednesday. There were no immediate reports of injuries or damage.
The magnitude 6.2 earthquake struck 102 miles below the seabed off the coast of Vanuatu at about 5 a.m. local time, the U.S. Geological Survey said in a statement.
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center in Hawaii did not issue a tsunami warning for the quake, which was centered about 100 miles southeast of Vanuatu's capital, Port Vila.
