A 6.1-magnitude earthquake hit central Colombia on Thursday, causing one death and severe damage in the departments of Meta and Cundinamarca, authorities said.
In Bogota, where the earthquake was strongly felt, Mayor Claudia Lopez said the city was spared serious damage but a woman died after jumping out the window of her 10th-floor apartment in the south of the city out of fear that the building would collapse from the quake.
