"A strong magnitude 5.8 earthquake occurred in the South Pacific Ocean 112 km (70 mi) fromNew Zealand in the evening at 8.00 pm local time (GMT +12). The depth of the quake could not be determined, but is assumed to be shallow.
The earthquake was felt over a large region.. The shallow depth of the quake caused it to be felt more strongly near the epicenter than a deeper quake of similar magnitude would." VD
