PAMPANGA, Philippines (4th UPDATE) – Nine people were killed in Porac and Lubao towns in this province as a magnitude 6.1 earthquake rocked parts of Luzon on Monday, April 22.

Quoting reports from the Pampanga Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (PDRRMO), Pampanga Governor Lilia Pineda said 5 people in Porac and Lubao died when their houses collapsed, while 3 bodies were retrieved from a grocery store that collapsed due to the earthquake.
