Residents from at least four building complexes in the Sagaing Division were too afraid to sleep in their homes on Sunday (November 11) after an earthquake rocked central Myanmar.<br/> <br />They moved to a nearby primary school which served as a temporary camp site.<br/> <br />The earthquake struck near the country's second-biggest city of Mandalay, killing at least six people.<br/> <br />It is feared the total number of dead is likely to rise because part of an unfinished bridge fell into the Irrawaddy River and several workers were missing.<br/> <br />The quake, estimated a 6.8 by the local meteorological service, hit around 60 kilometres (37 miles) north-west of Mandalay near the town of Shwebo at 7:41 a.m. (0111 GMT), and was shallow at around 10 kilometres (6 miles) deep.
