The Office of the State Fire Marshal restricted use of the Napa County Hall of Justice and Jail Annex after a safety inspection Tuesday morning found that the exterior and interior walls of the building had sustained minor damage in Sunday’s earthquake, county officials reported.

The building is at 1125 Third St. in Napa. Restricted use, commonly referred to as “yellow-tagged,” is for buildings that have been damaged, but the extent of damage does not preclude the building from being occupied, according to a county news release. The facility includes the Hall of Justice, constructed in 1974, and the Jail Annex, built in 1989.

The area has experienced numerous aftershocks since Sunday’s 6.0 earthquake. The U.S. Geological Survey reported a 3.9 aftershock early Tuesday morning about seven miles south of Napa.
