It was preceded by a smaller quake with an epicenter a bit farther out in the ocean.<\/p>\n<p> There were at least five aftershocks between magnitude 5.1 and 6, according to USGS.<\/p>\n<p> In Tapachula, the main city on Mexico&#8217;s southern border, the tremor began mildly but gradually intensified.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;We were upstairs on the second floor when it started shaking; we thought it would pass, but then it got stronger, so we all went downstairs and evacuated in an orderly manner to the front courtyard,&#8221; Alejandra Mendoza, an administrative employee at a public hospital in the city, explained to The Associated Press.<\/p>\n<p> In Guatemala City, the earthquake frightened residents because of how long it lasted.
