The earthquake was centered about 17 kilometers (10 miles) northeast of Bogo, a coastal city of about 90,000 people in Cebu province, and struck about 10 p.m. local time. Reynes appealed for food and water, saying San Remigio’s water system was damaged by the earthquake. In Bogo, the quake damaged concrete walls of houses, a fire station and concrete and asphalt roads, firefighter Rey Cañete said. Hundreds of terrified residents gathered in the darkness in a grassy field near the fire station and refused to return home hours after the earthquake struck in Bogo. “We’re sending already a trauma team there, doctors and nurses are on the way,” Baricuatro told the DZMM radio network.
