AN EARTHQUAKE RATTLES NEARBY FONTANA

San Bernardino County was hit this morning by a magnitude-4.4 earthquake near Fontana. The quake struck at 1:35 a.m. at a depth of just over 3 miles. The epicenter was 3 miles north-northwest of Fontana and 4 miles west-northwest of Rialto, according to the USGS. There were no immediate reports of injuries or damages, but the temblor was felt, one police officer comparing it to the impact of a car crash. “It felt like somebody ran into our building,’’ said Sgt. Chris Hice of the Rialto Police Department. Hice said the only report of damage in the city 25 minutes after the earthquake was of some broken glass at a school.
