A 6.6-magnitude
earthquake struck a rural area of
southwestern China
Saturday, claiming at least 100 lives and injuring approximately 2,000.
The earthquake also happened to interrupt the marriage ceremony of a
Chinese journalist, who got right to work
reporting from the scene —
still donned in her wedding dress and veil.
The reporter has been identified by the
South Morning China Post
as Chen Ying, an anchorwoman at a local news network. The footage has
since gone viral on Chinese social media service
Weibo, where users are
praising her "professional spirit," according to the
Post.
Many of those affected by the earthquake, news networks and official government agencies have also turned to Weibo to
share news and photographs of the event and its aftermath:
Saturday's earthquake has not been as deadly as a 2008 earthquake in a
nearby region of
China, which claimed nearly 70,000 lives, according to
Reuters.
