Park Service: No damage to DC monuments

U.S. Park Police in Washington made an initial survey of the city's monuments after a 5.9 magnitude earthquake and found no serious damage.

According to The Washington Post, the Park Police checked the monuments by helicopter shortly after the earthquake on Tuesday.

The National Park Service evacuated all of the monuments on the National Mall and closed them because of the earthquake.

A spokesman for the Park Service told The Associated Press there was no damage to any of the monuments.
