The U.S. Geological Survey reported that Sunday's quake was centered 17 kilometers (11 miles) east of the city at a relatively shallow depth of 8 kilometers (5 miles).

New Zealand authorities did not issue a tsunami warning.

Sunday's quake was one of the largest since the 2011 quake and people from across the South Island reported feeling the ground shaking.
