A strong offshore earthquake rocked Tokyo on Tuesday, the Japan Meteorological Agency said, swaying buildings in the capital and stopping subway services.
The magnitude 6.3 quake hit at 8:08 am Tuesday (2308 GMT Monday) off the coast of Chiba prefecture, just east of Tokyo, the agency said, adding there was no chance of a tsunami.
Shinkansen bullet train services stopped operations to the northern region, hit badly by the March 11 earthquake and tsunami that killed 13,130 and left 13,718 missing. (*)
