Two more people including a 2-month old baby were injured in South Cotabato after a 7.2 magnitude earthquake hit Davao Occidental Saturday morning.

This brought the number of injured to five after three, including a pregnant woman, from Glan, Saranggani was hurt.

The regional Office of Civil Defense identified the injured as Irene Jorda, 20 and Asheya Jorda, 2-month old from Brgy. Takonel, Lake Sebu who both sustained head injuries.

However, OCD can't confirm if the two are related.

An officer from OCD Region XII said a field evaluation is being conducted to know the extent of damage caused by the quake. Ella Dionisio/DMS
