Security Camera Captures Moment of 4.4 Magnitude Quake Shaking Downtown Los Angeles On August 12, a magnitude 4.4 earthquake struck the Los Angeles area, with its epicenter near the Highland Park neighborhood northeast of downtown. The quake, occurring at a depth of 12.1 km (7.5 miles), caused noticeable shaking throughout the region. Security cameras in a downtown parking lot captured the moment, showing vehicles trembling during the tremor. Additionally, a residential security camera recorded the shaking of the camera itself and a resident's reaction to the event. In response to the quake, the Los Angeles Fire Department activated its "Earthquake Mode" and reported no initial structural damage or injuries. The U.S. Geological Survey confirmed the magnitude and location of the earthquake, which was felt widely across the city.
