At least two killed in Indonesia quake: police
JAKARTA (AFP) - – At least two people were killed when a powerful 7.1-magnitude earthquake struck eastern Indonesia on Wednesday, police said.
Police said initial reports suggested they were crushed when their houses collapsed as the quake shook Yapen island off northern Papua province shortly after midday.
"Two people were killed on the island because of the quake. We're still collecting information about the damage," Yapen Island police chief Deny Siregar told AFP.
