As if Chilangos didn’t have enough problems with the swine flu emptying the Mexican capital’s streets (see related video above), a 6.0 earthquake centered in Guerrero just shook the city. Reuters reports:

Mexico was hit by a 6.0 magnitude earthquake on Monday, the U.S. Geological Survey said.The USGS said the quake hit 19 miles south-southeast of Tixtla, Guerrero, about 150 miles south of the capital, Mexico City. It was 25.6 miles deep.

Buildings in the capital shook.

Quakes of this magnitude are classified as strong and are capable of causing severe damage.

The USGS earlier reported the quake measured 5.8.

As we speak, CNN is reporting that buildings in tourist spot Acapulco, located close to the epicenter, are being evacuated.
