(UTV|Puerto Rico) – Two-thirds of Puerto Rico is still without power, and a quarter is without running water, after a series of earthquakes this week.
At least one person died and 300 homes were destroyed in a 6.4-magnitude quake and 6.0 aftershock on Tuesday.
It was the strongest quake to hit the island in 102 years.
Thousands of people have since slept outside or in their cars, fearful of being indoors during another quake that could cause their homes to collapse.
The south of the island was hardest hit, with dozens of homes in towns including Yauco, Guanica and Guayanilla collapsing.
On Tuesday, Governor Wanda Vazquez declared a state of emergency – activating the island’s National Guard to help with recovery efforts.
