Seddon residents on edge after 5.5 quake strikesMotorcycle enthusiast Ron Hebberd says he is trying not to let the quakes in Seddon get him down. Residents recovering from the Kaikoura earthquake have been severely shaken up yet again by a 5.5 magnitude quake near Seddon. The Australian said he moved to Seddon with his wife and newborn baby only six weeks before the Kaikoura earthquake. The excitement of the Kaikoura earthquake almost proved fatal for McKenzie after he suffered a heart attack. Awatere Accommodation housed 16 people today, including vineyard workers and a family displaced by the first quake, and McKenzie reported everyone as safe and sound.
