(Sept 16, 2013) An earthquake shook buildings in the Greek capital on Monday but there were no immediate reports of casualties or damage. A magnitude 4.5 quake struck central Greece just before 1500 GMT and was followed by a stronger tremor, the Athens Geodynamics Institute said. Fire brigade officials said they had not received any calls for assistance. The EMSC registered the earthquake as a 5.0 magnitude event. Greece is often rattled by earthquakes, most causing no serious damage. A 5.9 magnitude quake in 1999 killed 143 people. (Earthquake Map)- quakes.globalincidentmap/
