A good sized earthquake rattled windows across Los Angeles at about 1:47 p.m. today. Preliminary reports put the temblor at 4.6 on the Richter Scale and have it centered in Malibu. The ground shook hard not just in Malibu, but also in adjacent areas, such as Agoura Hills. It was the largest such shake in that area in some time.
