The quake struck around 2:15 p.m. about three miles from Malibu at a depth of nearly six miles.
No injuries or structural damage has been reported.
This comes one week after a 4.7-magnitude earthquake struck the same area. During that quake, the shaking was felt up to 60 miles away across Southern California. People reported feeling shaking as far away as Riverside and Newport Beach.
