Two people were injured after their vehicle drove into a sinkhole at the intersection of Colwyn and Sheffield drives in Sheffield Beach, on KwaZulu-Natal's Dolphin Coast last night.

Netcare 911 spokesperson Chris Botha said reports from the scene indicated the people had been travelling in the heavy rain when their vehicle plunged into a sinkhole.

"Paramedics arrived at the scene and found that the people managed to escape from the wreckage of their vehicle. After medics treated them at the scene, they transported the injured to a local hospital for the care that they required," he said.
