A mild earthquake has struck along the coast west of downtown Los Angeles, but there are no immediate reports of damages or injuries.
The U.S. Geological Survey says the magnitude-3.2 quake struck at 7:52 p.m. Friday and was widely felt across the city.
The epicenter was a mile southeast of Marina del Rey and two miles north of Los Angeles International Airport.
An airport police watch commander said he felt the quake, but no one called about it.
