A major 7.6-magnitude earthquake has struck Mexico, unleashing panic as it damaged scores of buildings and homes in the capital city. So far there’s no immediate report of severe injuries. The tremor was the second strongest in Mexico since 1985. In Mexico City, buildings swayed for at least a minute. The tremor caught people off guard and sent office workers into the streets. The epicentre was reported at 15 miles east of Ometepec, in Guerrero state, near the Pacific Coast resort city of Acapulco. It was one of the strongest in recent years and the president was quick to respond.
