New Zealand Earthquake
People watch as a small block of earthquake affected shops is demolished in Christchurch, New Zealand, Monday, Sept. 6, 2010, after the city was hit by a 7.1-magnitude earthquake on Saturday, Sept. 4. Engineers had condemned the shops and police had ordered there speedy demolition in a bid to stop people from entering the dangerous structure. Army troops took control of the center of the New Zealand city of Christchurch on Monday, two days after the powerful quake smashed buildings and homes, wrecked roads and rail lines, but caused no loss of life.
