Idaho 4.9 magnitude earthquake triggers rock slides, no injuries


(MENAFN- Saudi Press Agency) A 4.9 magnitude earthquake in a remote Idaho county triggered rock slides that blocked some road lanes Saturday but did not cause any major damage or injuries, AP reported.
The quake followed a 3.7-magnitude temblor that also occurred near the Custer County area on Dec. 22 and numerous smaller recent quakes, according to the U.S. Geological Survey website.
Linda Lumpkin, a dispatcher for the sheriff's office, told The Associated Press that everyone there felt it, but there were no reports of damage.
