From the OP link:
Quote:
Bruce Presgrave, a seismologist with USGS, told NBC News that there was a 5.7 aftershock approximately 22 minutes after the quake.
Most current reports say the same thing.

ETA: The USGS web site lists it as:
MAP5.9 2007/08/16 00:19:09-14.460 -75.908 10.0NEAR THE COAST OF CENTRAL PERU
MAP5.8 2007/08/16 00:02:42-12.645 -75.508 31.2CENTRAL PERU
MAP7.5 2007/08/15 23:40:58-13.322 -76.508 40.7NEAR THE COAST OF CENTRAL PERU
(Times listed are UTC, not local)

Interestingly, there was a 4.7 Earthquake the day before.
