Moderate quake shakes central California
SALINAS, Calif. (AP) -- A moderate earthquake was widely felt as it rattled a central California coastal area, but authorities say it didn't cause any damage.
The U.S. Geological Survey says nearly 6,700 people reported on its website feeling the magnitude 5.3 quake after it struck shortly before midnight Saturday near King City, about 90 miles southeast of San Jose.
USGS geophysicist Don Blakeman said the temblor struck in a "seismically active area" near the San Andreas Fault. The quake was followed by at least four aftershocks that were greater than magnitude 2.5.
The sheriff departments for Monterey and nearby San Luis Obispo counties say they received calls but there were no reports of damage.
The area where the quake hit is a mostly rural area of rolling hills with large farms and ranches

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) -- Oklahoma-based Chesapeake Energy Corp. says it will donate $1 million to the American Red Cross to help in the rescue and recovery efforts in Moore.
The oil and gas company says it's also organizing hundreds of employee volunteers to help in the relief effort.
Chesapeake board chairman Archie Dunham says the company is providing "all possible assistance" using Chesapeake's equipment, machinery and resources. The company is also using its "Operation Blue" employee program that allows workers to volunteer four hours on company time.
Chesapeake says it will expand the Operation Blue campaign to help out in Moore.
