Authorities fear a grandmother in western Pennsylvania who disappeared while looking for her cat may have been swallowed by a sinkhole.
Crews lowered a pole camera with a sensitive listening device into the hole on Tuesday but no sound was detected, while a second camera lowered down showed what could be a shoe.Police say Elizabeth Pollard's relatives called police at about 1 a.m. to say she hadn't been seen since Monday evening when she went to search for her cat. They found Pollard's 5-year-old granddaughter in her parked car near the manhole-sized opening.
Other recent sinkhole incidentsIn June, a giant sinkhole in southern Illinois swallowed the center of a soccer field built on top of a limestone mine, taking down a large light pole and leaving a gaping chasm where squads of kids often play. No one was hurt.In 2023, a sinkhole that in 2013 fatally swallowed a man sleeping in his house in suburban Tampa, Florida, reopened for a third time, but it was behind chain-link fencing and caused no harm to people or property.
