A magnitude 5.1 earthquake struck near Ojai on Sunday, rattling the larger Southern California region as residents were dealing with intense rains from Tropical Storm Hilary.
The temblor was felt across Southern California and hit at 2:41 p.m.
Scott Thomsen, Ventura County Fire director of communications, said the department immediately implemented its earthquake plan that involves getting the trucks out of the firehouses. He said “so far we have no reports of damage but we are checking.”
He noted the quake came just as officials were bracing for Tropical Storm Hilary.
