There are rumors on Twitter, that Venezuela has been hit by a 8.2 magnitude earthquake.

With tsunamis alerts, also going out for the islands of the Dominican Republic, Haiti and Puerto Rico, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago.

Estimated to hit at 1.14 am, the message has also been said to be a hoax.

This follows the actual earthquake, which hit California today, at 4.4 magnitude, the earthquake it hit east of downtown Los Angeles. Although there have been no reports of injuries, damages, but there were power shortages.

There is no other information on Venezuela as yet. But one can assume this is just another Twitter, rumour one that has no humour to it at all.
