christchurch earthquake

Yesterday, at 12.51pm, there was a earthquake in Christchurch. It was magnitude 6.3, with a depth of 5km. Lots of buildings collapsed & people were trapped inside. The Prime Minister Says it’s the darkest day in New Zealand.

When the buildings collapsed the bricks fell & the dust choked the city. People were covering their mouths with masks, so they could breathe. Many of them could not see because of the dust.
