A magnitude 4.2 earthquake occurred at Anza-Borrego Desert State Park about 50 miles east of San Diego, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

The temblor took place about 8:30 Saturday morning. No injuries or damages were reported, a CalFire dispatcher said. A sheriff’s dispatcher also said there have been no earthquake-related calls.

The epicenter was about 14 miles from Julian.
