It was felt hundreds of miles away in Singapore, where some office
buildings were evacuated, and in neighboring Malaysia.
The magnitude-6.3 quake killed at least two young children and a
teacher when a two-story building crashed onto a playground in the
Sumatran town of Solok, said police spokesman Supriadi, who goes by
only one name. A woman in a market also died, he said.
District chief Samsu Rahim told el-Shinta radio that nine people
had died, but did not give details.
Hundreds of buildings collapsed, including a crowded state bank,
and hospitals were struggling to cope with a flood of patients,
many suffering cuts and broken bones, Supriadi said.
At least one hospital was evacuated following the tremor, sending
panicked doctors and nurses fleeing through the doors and startled
patients limping behind, some aided by family members
