A huge wave reached a populated area in the Robinson Crusoe Islands, 410 miles (660 kilometres) off the Chilean coast, said President Michele Bachelet. Tsunami warnings were issued over a wide area, including South America, Hawaii, Australia and New Zealand, Japan, the Philippines, Russia and many Pacific islands. Bachelet said the death toll was at 78 and rising. She declared a "state of catastrophe" in central Chile. In the 2 1/2 hours following the 90-second quake, the US Geological Survey reported 11 aftershocks, five of them measuring 6.0 or above. Bachelet urged people to avoid travelling in the dark, since traffic lights are down, to avoid causing more fatalities. Chilean television showed images of destroyed buildings and damaged cars, with rubble-strewn streets. Dozens of people were seen roaming through the streets, including some wheeling suitcases behind them. The quake hit 200 miles (325 kilometres) southwest of the capital, Santiago, at a depth of 22 miles (35 kilometres) at 3:34 a.m. (0634 GMT), the US Geological Survey reported. The epicentre was just 70 miles (115 kilometres) from Concepcion, Chile''s second-largest city, where more than 200,000 people live along the Bio Bio river, and 60 miles from the ski town of Chillan, a gateway to Andean ski resorts that was destroyed in a 1939 earthquake.
