4.4 Magnitude Earthquake Rattles Los Angeles — and ESPN Catches It on Camera

-


The work week is off to a shaky start for some Californians!

A 4.4 magnitude earthquake centered near Pasadena, Calif. struck Monday, Aug. 10 at 12:20 p.m. PT, the Los Angeles Times reported.

As seen in video footage shared on social media Monday, the impact was felt widely throughout southern California, including at the ESPN studios in Los Angeles.

ESPN shared live video footage from inside the studio, where the show NBA Today was filming when the earthquake hit, on X (formerly Twitter).

Broadcaster Malika Andrews was in the middle of an interview with Rebecca Lobo, who was on-screen remotely in another location, when she realized the ground was shaking.

“…As we have a bit of an earthquake here in Los Angeles,” she said live on air, without missing a beat. “So, we’re just going to make sure that our studio lights, everything stays safe, everything’s shaking.”

“Definitely a scary moment here in our LA studios. Thank you to our incredible staff and crew who stayed cool throughout!” Andrews wrote on X after the show. “Stay safe, fellow Angelenos.”

Lobo, 50, also shared her thoughts on X, praising Andrews’ reaction. “I was stunned by both the earthquake and how @malika_andrews handled it like a boss. Wow,” Lobo wrote.

Another reaction was caught on camera during ESPN Los Angeles’ Travis & Sliwa Show. As seen in a clip on X, the radio show hosts were chatting when the tremble hit.

“Whoa, whoa that is a real one,” ESPN radio host Travis Rodgers said as the studio visibly shook. Producer Emily Hybl ducked under a table while something could be seen falling from the ceiling in the background.

While there were no reports of immediate major damage caused by the earthquake, a water pipe burst at Pasadena City Hall, city spokesperson Lisa Derderian told the Los Angeles Times. The earthquake also caused some elevator issues in the building.
