The death toll from a powerful earthquake in the central Philippines approached 60 on Wednesday, with injured patients overwhelming hospitals on the island of Cebu as workers carried dozens of body bags away in the chaotic aftermath. The shallow magnitude 6.9 quake struck at 9:59 pm (1359 GMT) Tuesday off the island's northern end near Bogo, a city of 90,000 people, according to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). Injured children cried and adults screamed while receiving treatment on beds laid out beneath blue tents on the driveway of the Cebu Provincial Hospital in Bogo.
