An earthquake shook the Heartland Monday, jolting hundreds of thousands in Kansas and Oklahoma in the middle of the work day. It was the strongest to hit the region so far this year.
The USGS said the magnitude-4.4 quake hit around 3:15 p.m. CDT. It was centered 9 miles east-northeast of Cherokee, Oklahoma, near the Kansas border.
About a half hour later, the USGS also measured a 3.7-magnitude aftershock near Cherokee.
