Earthquake
Continued from Page 1
nothing, but nobody was hurt. We're all
safe," said A1 McNeil, whose home in
Granada Hills was destroyed by fire.
Sirens wailed as smoke from building
and gas main fires drifted across the val
ley, 20 miles northwest of downtown Los
Angeles. Firefighters raced to rescue peo
ple believed to be trapped in the rubble of
collapsed buildings.
Officers patrolled streets in the early
morning darkness to guard against loot
ing as police helicopters aimed their spot
lights on shattered storefronts below.
Residents unsettled by continuing af
tershocks huddled on sidewalks, holding
candles, and packed their belongings into
cars. Many drove aimlessly on darkened
streets and freeways.
The quake struck at 4:31 a.m. and was
centered in Northridge in the San Fernan
do Valley. It measured a preliminary 6.6
on the Richter scale, said Kate Hutton, a
seismologist at the California Institute of
Technology.
The jolts shook buildings in San Diego,
125 miles south, and in Las Vegas, about
275 miles to the northeast. Brief power
outages caused by the quake were report
ed as far north as British Columbia and
western Wyoming.
Gov. Pete Wilson and Mayor Richard Ri-
ordan declared emergencies, and President
Clinton dispatched Federal Emergency
Management Agency chief James Lee Witt
to California to supervise relief efforts.
"We intend to do everything we possi
bly can to help the people of Los Angeles
and Southern California to deal with the
earthquake and its aftermath," Clinton
said in Washington, D.C.
The city Department of Water and
Power urged residents to boil drinking
water contaminated by broken mains. At
midday, at least 625,000 customers were
without power in Central and Southern
California.
California National Guard troops were
sent in, and the Office of Emergency Ser
vices sent about 300 search-and-rescue
teams equipped with fiber-optic sensors
and other gear to detect structural flaws
and find possible victims.
A 75-foot-high overpass connecting two
highwas in suburban Sylmar collapsed,
killing a Los Angeles police motorcycle of
ficer, said city' fire department spokesman
Jim Wells.
At least 14 people were killed when an
apartment building collapsed in North
ridge, and firefighters searched for any oth
er victims.
