PHOTOS: Residents Forced to Evacuate After Volcano Erupts on Japanese Island
Yeah this island that movie Godzilla come from
Evacuations were ordered Friday after a volcano erupted on a small island in the Japanese island chain.
Mount Shindake, which sits on the island of Kuchinoerabu, erupted at 9:57 a.m. Friday, local time, and caused a 4.0-magnitude earthquake, according to the United States Geological Survey
About 140 people living on the island were ordered to evacuate, the Japanese government said. The Japanese Meteorological Agency raised its volcano level to 5, its highest level, as a result of the eruption.
Pyroclastic flows from the volcano reached the shore, Japanese broadcaster NHK reported
