SPARKS, OK -- A 4.4 magnitude earthquake shook parts of Oklahoma Saturday afternoon, according to preliminary reports from the U.S. Geological Survey.

The epicenter of the quake was three miles ENE of Sparks and 22 miles NNE of Shawnee.

The News On 6 has had reports from a number of people who say they felt their homes shake and saw pictures rattling on the walls. 

"It shook really bad. It almost felt like a bomb," said Samantha Cordell, who was at the Prague Community Center at the time of the quake. "It felt like something exploded outside the community center."

No serious damage has been reported.

This is the second earthquake to strike in the last two days.

Friday morning, a 3.1 magnitude earthquake hit a little closer to Oklahoma City.

The Oklahoma Geological Survey would like anyone who felt the quake to report it on their Web site.
