Beginning on July 4, southern California was hit by several strong earthquakes, including 6.9 and a 7.1 magnitude quakes in the Death Valley area. These quakes were felt as far away as Los Angeles, Mexico and Las Vegas, and although there was no loss of life reported, there was plenty of building damage and fires.
Although Vegas felt the quakes, there does not appear to have been any damage to the new Raiders stadium being built on the Strip, nor any injuries to the construction workers, according to this piece by the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
