CHILEQUAKE

         
There was an earthquake in Chile causing tragedy.


As you may or may not know Chile is known for having a lot of earth movement. In September 2015 a 25 kilometers (15.5 miles) and 8.3 magnitude earthquake struck. Chile's earthquake killed at least 5 people and also caused approximately 1 million people to evacuated areas. According to CNN these were the words of a Chilean citizen interviewed: "Everybody ran outside. The windows rattled. Things fell ... The impact was strong" said Emily Hersh, who lives in Santiago. "Even after I stepped outside, I felt the ground moving. Is now up to the Chilean government to help their people get safe and make the territory safe as it used to be."
