The sinkhole has struck once again, this time in the coastal city of Trujillo, central Peru. Luckily, it took no victim. A family of three managed to escape with the assistance of passersby after the hole, which measured five metres wide and three metres deep, opened in the middle of the road and swallowed their car.
Once the couple, Edgar Orlanda Bartolo Silva, 34, Marisol Mercedes Gutierrez Siccha, 31, and their two-year-old daughter, had escaped from the car, cranes were used to winch the vehicle to safety, according to the Independent.
Eish.
