BALTIMORE — Maryland officials say the earthquake was felt across the state, but no injuries or major damage are being reported.
Maryland Emergency Management Agency spokesman Ed McDonough says Tuesday's 5.8 magnitude quake, which was centered in Virginia, was felt from Garrett County to Somerset County, but only a few serious incidents are being reported.
The Maryland Transportation Authority closed the Harry W. Nice Bridge temporarily, but all other tunnels and bridges remained open.
State police spokesman Greg Shipley says all special operations teams are on standby.
