A spokesman for Indonesia’s National Disaster Mitigation Agency says the death toll from Wednesday’s earthquake has risen to 102, spread across three districts in northern Aceh but concentrated in Pidie Jaya near the epicenter.

Sutopo Purwo Nugroho said at a press conference Thursday that 136 people are severely injured and more than 600 have light injuries.

The death toll “probably will increase,” he says, despite the agency only counting one person as officially missing. “A joint rescue team is still continuing to search for the victims.”

Hajj Yusri Abdullah, owner of a shop in Meureudu town’s crumpled market, says he isn’t holding out much hope survivors will be found as backhoes and rescuers, worked on the rubble.

He says nearly two dozen bodies were pulled from the market debris on Wednesday including a group of eight made up of a newlywed couple and family members holding an ornate celebration known as Antar Dara Baro.

Local TV reported that about 40 shop houses in the market collapsed.

Nearly 100 people died in the shallow and powerful quake that struck northeast Sumatra before dawn on Wednesday.

A woman in the worst-hit district near the epicenter of Indonesia’s earthquake says she fled with her husband and children to a nearby hill after the quake jolted the family awake early Wednesday. They stayed there for several hours until authorities reassured them there was no tsunami risk.

Seaside resident Fitri Abidin in Pidie Jaya district says: “It terrified me. I was having difficulty breathing or walking.”

She says her husband grabbed hold of her and carried her out of the house as their children were crying.

She says: “We ran to a nearby hill, because our house is near a beach. We were afraid a tsunami can come at any time.”

The family’s house didn’t collapse but the homes of some neighbors did. Abidin is traumatized because she believes three friends were buried in building collapses.
