JAKARTA, Indonesia - A 6.8-magnitude earthquake rocked a large swath of Indonesia’s Sumatra Island on Tuesday, shaking buildings and causing panic, witnesses and meteorological officials said.

There were no immediate reports of damage as a result of the undersea quake that struck at 0852 local time (0152 GMT), said Budi Waluyu of the government’s geophysical and meteorological agency.

In a posting on its Web site, the U.S Geological Survey put the preliminary strength of the quake at 6.8 and said its epicenter was located 210 kilometer (130 miles) southwest of from Medan in north Sumatra.

Undersea quakes of 6.8-strength rarely trigger large tsunami.

Callers to el-Shinta radio station from Medan said tall buildings shook as a result of the quake and some residents ran from their homes.
