Storefront Shakes as Earthquake Strikes Crete

The Greek island of Crete was struck by a magnitude-6 earthquake on the morning of September 27.

The European Mediterranean Seismological Centre said the quake was one of 15 tremors in total within the space of three hours.

One person was reported dead, and at least 11 were injured, local news said.

In Heraklion, schools were evacuated and were due to be checked for structural damage.
