A strong earthquake has struck off the coast of New Zealand's South Island, but there are no reports of damage or injuries and no tsunami warning has been issued. The 6.1-magnitude quake struck Thursday 126 miles (203 kilometers) west of New Zealand's southernmost city, Invercargill, at a depth of 11 miles (18 kilometers).
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center did not issue an alert. A devastating quake ravaged the New Zealand city of Christchurch last year, killing 182 people
