A series of earthquakes has rattled parts of Oklahoma just days after a magnitude 5.0 earthquake damaged homes and businesses in Cushing in north-central Oklahoma.

The U.S. Geological Survey says a magnitude 3.0 earthquake was recorded at 9:50 a.m. Friday seven miles east-northeast of Luther in Oklahoma County in central Oklahoma. It was preceded by another 3.0 magnitude quake at 5:12 a.m. about 10 miles northwest of Medford in northern Oklahoma and a 3.3 magnitude quake at 2:54 a.m. about 10 miles east-southeast of Geary in west-central Oklahoma.

No damage or injuries were immediately report. Geologists say damage is not likely in earthquakes below magnitude 4.0.

The 5.0 magnitude earthquake on Sunday damaged structures in Cushing, a key world oil hub. No damage was reported at the oil terminal.
