                updated 3:41 AM EDT, Sun May 20, 2012
                Rome (CNN) -- A strong earthquake struck early Sunday in northern Italy, leaving at least five people dead, authorities said.

                Two people were killed in a ceramic factory in Sant'Agostino di Ferrara, and one person died when a work shed collapsed in Ponte Rodoni di Bondeno, according to Elisabetta Maffani, spokeswoman for Italy's civil protection agency.

                In addition, a woman in Bologna died of a heart attack during an evacuation, Maffani said.

                It was not immediately clear how the fifth person died.

                At least 50 people were injured. Workers were searching through rubble for survivors in Sant'Agostino.

                The 6.0-magnitude quake occurred just after 4 a.m. (10 p.m. ET Saturday), 4 kilometers (2.4 miles) outside Camposanto, northwest of Bologna, the U.S. Geological Survey said....

                      Deadly earthquake rocks northern Italy

                      At least seven people killed and many historical buildings damaged in 6.0-magnitude quake near city of Bologna.

                      At least seven people have been killed and up to 50 others injured in a 6.0-magnitude earthquake near the northern Italian city of Bologna, according to the Italian news agency ANSA.

                      The strong quake struck at 4:04am local time (02:04 GMT) on Sunday in the country's industrial heartland while most people were sleeping, prompting thousands to run into the streets in panic.

                      Hospitals were evacuated as a precautionary measure.

                      Al Jazeera's Sabina Castelfranco, reporting from the worst affected town of Finale Emilia, said: "Scared people are out on the street and have refused to go back to their homes."

                      "There are apparently 13,000 people that have been displaced, and it is unclear whether there is going to be more victims found," she said.

                      "Authorities in the area have schools closed down until the situation stabilises," said Castelfranco.

                        A strong earthquake shook northern Italy early on Sunday, killing at least four people, toppling buildings and sending residents running into the streets, emergency services and news reports said. The magnitude-6.0 temblor struck at 4:04 a.m. (2:04 GMT) on Sunday between Modena and Mantova, about 35 kilometers (22 miles) north-northwest of Bologna at a relatively shallow depth of 5 kilometers (3.2 miles), the US Geological Survey said. It was one of the strongest quakes to shake the region.
