A series of aftershocks rattled rescuers and residents racing to find survivors following a massive earthquake in central Italy as the death toll jumped overnight to 267, CNN reported.
Aftershocks sent rescuers and journalists running from buildings Thursday as the ground shook again in the hard-hit town of Amatrice.
"People were just running onto the roads away from buildings in a panic. We saw our cameras shaking, and journalists here too were panicking," said CNN producer Margot Haddad.
After Wednesday's 6.2-magnitude quake that reduced villages to rubble, the US Geological Survey recorded a series of aftershocks ranging between magnitude 4.1 and 4.7.
