A magnitude 4.2 earthquake hit San Bernardino County early Tuesday, sending judders across the region.

The quake occurred at 1:53 a.m. and was centered about three miles north of Wrightwood, a remote community about 80 miles northwest of Los Angeles, the U.S. Geological Survey said on its Web site.

The quake was strong enough to wake people as far away as the north Los Angeles suburb of Glendale.

It was not immediately known if the quake had caused any damage or injuries.
