170 PEOPLE UNACCOUNTED FOR AS MAGNITUDE-6.4 QUAKE HITS TAIWAN

A magnitude-6.4 quake struck Taiwan Tuesday night causing some buildings to cave in and many others standing crooked. The shallow and powerful earthquake has reportedly claimed two lives with over 170 people unaccounted for. It struck near Taiwan's eastern coast, hitting Hualien county more. Firefighters and rescuers could be seen climbing ladders hoisted against windows as they sought to reach residents inside apartments. Over 219 people are injured of which about two dozen of them are in critical condition in Hualien county - The National Fire Agency confirmed. The agency said most of the 170 people who could not be reached for rescue at the moment might be in the Yunmen Cuiti building - a 12-story apartment building. A hotel employee died when the ground floor caved in at the Marshal Hotel, and another person died in a residential building. A maintenance worker who was rescued after being trapped in the hotel's basement said the force of the earthquake was not usual. "At first it wasn't that big ... we get this sort of thing all the time and it's really nothing. But then it got really terrifying," Chen Ming-hui said after he was reunited with his son and grandson. "It was really scary." Many buildings tilted on their foundations due to the magnitude-6.4 quake Tuesday night and rescuers used ropes, ladders and cranes to get residents to safety. MANCHESTER UNITED RISKS LOSING MARCUS RASHFORD IN SUMMER United States of America's Geological Survey said the magnitude-6.4 quake hit before midnight Tuesday about 23 kilometers (14 miles) northeast of Hualien at a shallow depth of about 10.6 kilometers (6.6 miles). Taiwan has frequent earthquakes due to its position along the "Ring of Fire," the seismic faults encircling the Pacific Ocean where most of the world's earthquakes occur. DSCUS
