3 dead in Indonesian earthquake

A powerful magnitude earthquake that shook the eastern Indonesian island of Sulawesi has killed at least three people and seriously injured a dozen others.

The earthquake struck 35 miles southeast of Palu on the Indonesian island of Sulawesi on Saturday night rattling crockery as people were breaking the Ramadan fast but there were no immediate reports of casualties or damage, authorities said.

The quake was originally reported by the USGS as a magnitude of 6.5. The depth was reported at 12.5 miles.
