6.2 magnitude earthquake hits Spain

A 6.2 magnitude earthquake has struck the southern ancient city of Granada in Spain, the US Geological Survey says.

The quake hit about eight minutes after midnight on Monday (22:08 GMT Sunday) some 24 kilometers (14 miles) southeast of Granada and about 370 kilometers (230 miles) south of the Spanish capital, Madrid.

It had a recorded depth of 616 kilometers (nearly 400 miles) which means little damage is likely.

No loss of life or property has so far been reported.
