Humboldt County tallies earthquake damage as power outages persist
the victims were 72 and 83. At least 17 people sustained injuries, including broken bones and head trauma, largely from furniture or appliances toppling over, officials said.
Though the epicenter — or the earthquake’s starting point — was just offshore, it ruptured along a fault onshore. The aftershock distribution for Tuesday’s event measured about 12 miles, or 20 kilometers, which is the likely length of the fault, Jones said. “I’d never reacted like this to an earthquake before,” she said. “It’s been scary, but this one was really much louder and noisier.”
Gov. Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency for Humboldt County, granting it state disaster resources, requesting federal assistance and easing access to unemployment benefits.
