Reports of earthquake in B.C. Monday appear to have been sent in error
"Reports of a 6.5 magnitude earthquake off the west coast of B.C. Monday afternoon appear to have been sent out in error."
"The U.S. Geological Survey tweeted at 2:24 p.m. that a preliminary 6.5 magnitude earthquake struck at a depth of 15 km about 164 km south-southeast of Kitimat."
"However, the report was quickly removed from the USGS website."
"Global News has reached out to the USGS for more information."
"According to The Canadian Press, a computer glitch appears to have led to the erroneous report."
"Alison Bird of Natural Resources Canada told the agency the automated system is not perfect at processing data and it’s possible two small earthquakes at different locations were detected as one event."
