A powerful earthquake rocked Mexico on Tuesday, killing at least 120 people and toppling buildings — less than two weeks after a magnitude-8.1 quake hit the country and left nearly 100 dead.

The quake struck central Mexico at about 2:15 p.m. ET and had a magnitude of 7.1, the United States Geological Survey said. Its epicenter was in the state of Puebla, about 80 miles southeast of the capital, Mexico City.

Mexico City’s mayor told the AP that at least 30 are dead in the capital alone. Officials in Morelos state south of Mexico City said there were at least 55 deaths in the state.

At least 26 others died in Puebla state, state disaster prevention chief Carlos Valdes said, according to the AP.

And at least nine others were killed in Mexico State, Gov. Alfredo del Mazo said in a post on Twitter.
