Winston-Salem, North Carolina (AP) – A 2.3-magnitude earthquake shook part of central North Carolina early Wednesday, authorities said, the second to hit the area in a week.

The United States Geological Survey confirmed a 2.3-magnitude earthquake at 4:05 a.m. Wednesday in Winston-Salem, the Winston-Salem Journal reported.

On Sunday morning, a 2.4-magnitude earthquake struck Winston-Salem just before 9 a.m.

The epicenter of Sunday’s earthquake was about 3 miles southwest of Winston-Salem. There were no reports of injuries or damage after the two earthquakes.

In August 2020, a magnitude 5.1 earthquake struck Sparta, the second such earthquake that morning.
