Greek authorities reported that nine people were also injured as a result of the quake, which measured around 6.0 on the Richter scale.
According to the Institute of Geodynamics at the National Observatory of Athens, the epicenter of the quake was located around 14 miles northwest of the Cretan city of Arvi and around 215 miles from the Greek capital.
One man died when the dome of a church in Arkalochori caved in during renovation works, Reuters reported, citing local police officials. Among those who rushed outdoors were schoolchildren. As the quake struck teachers and school staff instructed pupils to leave their classrooms and gather in schoolyards and town squares across the island."It felt quite strong and lasted many seconds," a local mayor told Greek TV station Skai television.
