Spain shocked by fatal earthquake
Thousands have spent the night outdoors in the southern Spanish town of Lorca after an earthquake that killed at least eight people.
The magnitude-5.2 tremor toppled several buildings after striking at a depth of just 10km (six miles), 120km south-west of Alicante.
Lines of cars lay crushed under tonnes of rubble after Spain's worst earthquake for 50 years.
