According to local media reports, 119 people were injured after a 6.2-degree earthquake shook Peru early Monday morning.

The injury toll is expected to continue to increase as Ica’s Civil Defense office continues to update its reports.

Authorities also reported 16 homes were damaged, and one was made uninhabitable. Officials continue to evaluate Ica’s rural areas.

Cesar Chonate, head of Indeci in Ica, said most of the injuries had been minor bumps and bruises.

"There is only one case of a pelvic fracture, which is considered more serious, but all the rest have been bumps, cuts, bruises, which have resulted from people trying to desperately evacuate their homes, and rolled down the stairs," he said, according to El Comercio.

Many residents spent the night in parks and streets due to fears of possible aftershocks.

According to RPP, the quake was felt in Lima, Ica, Chincha, Pisco, Ancansh, Huancayo, Huanuco, Arequipa and Cusco.

Peru’s Geophysical Institute said tremor’s epicenter was located 47 kilometers southwest of the city of Ica and had a depth of 48 kilometers.
