71-story SEG Plaza Building in Huaqiangbei, China's Shenzhen city has been evacuated after the building started shaking, reports say there was no earthquake in the region.
Videos show crowds frantically fleeing the building. But there was no earthquake in the area.
Chinese authorities are now investigating the cause of the shake.
The SEG is one of the tallest and most iconic skyscrapers in Shenzhen, and houses in its lower floors one of the biggest electronic shopping malls in the world (if not the biggest). The building was completed in the year 2000, which by Shenzhen standards, makes it kinda old.
