L'AQUILA, Italy (AP) — This quake ravaged medieval city took a limping step toward normalcy Thursday as butchers, bakers and other shopkeepers reopened for business, three days after a deadly earthquake made the historic center uninhabitable and halted nearly all economic activity.Sad that so many people died, but it's good to hear that the city is rebuilding.
The death toll from Italy's worst quake in three decades reached 283, including 20 children and teens, police said.
