A 4.2 earthquake struck near Ojai in Ventura County today, but there were no reports of injuries or damage.
The temblor struck four miles east of Ojai at 1:27 p.m. (that's about 60 miles northeast of downtown Los Angeles). It was felt in parts of Ventura County and surrounding areas.
It's one of several temblors to hit the region in recent weeks, including one near Westlake Village and several in the Yorba Linda area.

Pretty strong jolt here in Ventura. Felt like a truck hit my apartment building.

Why does the Times constantly get its simple geography wrong? Ojai is about 60 miles NORTHWEST of Los Angeles.
