SAN FRANCISCO — A small earthquake measuring 4.1 hit the Californian city of San Jose and the surrounding area on Friday afternoon, The Los Angeles Times reported.
The epicenter of the quake, which occurred at about 4:10 pm (0010 GMT Saturday), was located about 13 miles (20 kilometers) southeast of downtown San Jose, the report said.
There were no reports of injuries or damage, the paper noted.
The reading was based on the open-ended Moment Magnitude scale, now used by US seismologists, which measures the area of the fault that ruptured and the total energy released.
