A HUGE earthquake has been detected near Los Angeles.

The earthquake occurred around 12:22 a.m. Monday, about three miles south of the Highland Park area.

California is no stranger to earthquakes, as thousands of people shake the state several times a year, reports the US Geological Survey.

Although many citizens are accustomed to shaking, Monday’s earthquake was preliminarily reported as being 4.7, according to CW affiliate KTLA.

Most earthquakes that shake California are generally small.

Several hundred reach a magnitude of 3.0, while only 15 to 20 reach 4.0 on the Richter scale.
