3 earthquakes rattle Fontana area

FONTANA, Calif. Residents were rattled from their beds by a 3.3-magnitude earthquake at 1:53 a.m. near Fontana.

It was a small earthquake, but it probably felt stronger to the people who felt the shaking because it was centered close to Fontana.

At 8:18 a.m., the area was hit with a 2.6-magnitude earthquake, and a third earthquake hit at 8:30 a.m., a 2.6-magnitude.

There are no reports of damage or injury.
