A massive earthquake struck the island of Hisponola, which is where Haiti and the Dominican Republis are. The epicenter (center of earthquake) was near the Haitian capitol of Port au Prince. Many buildings there are not built to the same standards as in America or otehr 1st world countries, and so collapsed, trapping thousands.
