A small quake rattled the Mojave Desert on Sunday but no damage or
injuries were reported, authorities said.

   The magnitude 3.3 temblor hit just after 8 p.m. and was centered six
miles east-northeast of Barstow, said seismologist Lisa Wald of the
California Institute of Technology in Pasadena.

   The quake was an aftershock to the 7.5-magnitude Landers and
6.6-magnitude Big Bear quakes that shook Southern California on June 28,
Wald said.

   Dorothea Jaramillo, a police dispatcher, said no one reported damage
or injuries in the city about 90 miles east of Los Angeles.
