Residents across the Las Vegas Valley felt shaking Thursday afternoon after an earthquake struck near Summerlin, prompting thousands of reports to the US Geological Survey (USGS).
The quake hit shortly before 2 PM on June 4, with the epicenter located roughly 7 miles northwest of Summerlin South.
Initial measurements placed the earthquake between magnitude 3.8 and 4.1, making it strong enough to be widely felt across Southern Nevada.
A video shared on social media captured the moment the tremors were felt, with residents reporting shaking in Summerlin, Henderson and other parts of the Las Vegas metropolitan area.
According to the USGS, the level of shaking is typically felt indoors by many people and may cause windows, dishes and doors to rattle while parked vehicles rock slightly.
Reports also came from communities outside Las Vegas, including Pahrump near the Nevada-California border.
No immediate damage or injuries were reported following the earthquake.
Seismologists noted that magnitude estimates may be adjusted as additional data from monitoring stations continues to be analyzed.
Aftershock chances remain elevated, with a moderate chance of additional seismic activity in the area.
Nevada remains one of America's most active seismic zones, with earthquakes occurring across a broad network of faults distributed throughout the region.
The Las Vegas earthquake was one of several seismic events recorded across the western United States on Thursday.
