An aftershock to the 1994 Northridge earthquake shook the San Fernando Valley late Tuesday, but there were no immediate reports of injury or damage.

The quake had a preliminary magnitude of 3.0 and struck at 10:22 p.m., two miles southeast of Encino, U.S. Geological Survey seismologist Jim Mori said.

The tremor was one of thousands of aftershocks to the 6.7-magnitude Northridge quake of Jan. 17, 1994, that killed 72 people and caused more than $40 billion in damage.
