It was 5:40 a.m. Thursday when Bob Sanders, a plant supervisor at Oldcastle Industrial Minerals in Jackson Township, heard what he called a "large bang" while sitting in his office.

Sanders discovered that a massive sinkhole - measuring an estimated 40 feet by 40 feet - had opened up inside the building at 550 S. Biesecker Road. The building, which houses Sanders' office, a maintenance shop and storage for parts, sits near South Biesecker Road.

Everyone inside the building evacuated safely and the fire department; and York Water Company and PennDOT were called, Sanders said. In addition, the building was cordoned off and South Biesecker Road was closed at its intersection with Route 30.

"There was water running," in the hole, Sanders said. "Is that what was causing it? We don't know, but we shut it off."

A police sergeant on patrol in his department SUV was swallowed by a massive sinkhole here, Sheridan Police said.

Sgt. Greg Miller was traveling eastbound on West Oxford Avenue south of Denver early Friday morning when the road gave way.

"Next thing I know ... dirt — I'm assuming dust from the airbag — was floating around and everything," said Miller. "I hear the rushing water, and all I see is a dirt wall in front of me."

The car ended up 10 to 15 feet below the road surface.

Part of a pavement and roadway in Sofia's Cherni Vruh Boulevard collapsed on June 4, creating a large hole, apparently as a result of work on extending the city's metro underground railway line.

No one was injured in the incident.

Ivan Iliev, head of the construction project, said that the collapse happened near old tunnels, cable and heating systems.

A retaining wall would be built, the debris cleared and the hole filled with suitable material, he said, saying that normal traffic in the area would resume in a few days.

Minivan ends up in Saskatoon sinkhole

Passersby and employees of nearby Saskatoon businesses scrambled to help pull a woman and two children from a minivan that plunged into a large sinkhole. The sinkhole opened up at the intersection of 45th Street and Hanselman Avenue just before 5 p.m.

The woman driving the van thought she could simply drive over what she thought was a pothole.

Instead, the entire front end fell in and water started flooding the front seat. Everyone was able to get out safely.

The driver, who didn't give her name, said she was later told the van had not reached the bottom and was balancing on the edge.

The intersection where the accident happened is expected to be closed for several days while crews repair the damage and fix a broken water main that's believed to have carved out the crater.

A large truck has been pulled out of a sinkhole on Marlin Drive, in the Camelot subdivision in south Huntsville. This area is just east of the intersection of Bailey Cove Road and Green Mountain Road.

The truck got stuck about 8:30 a.m. Thursday. WHNT News 19's Alexandra Carter talked with the driver, who wasn't hurt, just surprised.

A recovery vehicle came to pull it out of the hole, but crews had to use caution because the second vehicle was also at risk of collapsing in the hole when it got too close.

Crews say it looks like the sinkhole was caused by an underground stream from Wednesday's heavy rains. Crews say they could be on the street for one to five hours as they fill in the hole with asphalt.

A mysterious giant sinkhole opened up at a golf course in what could be the world's easiest hole-in-one.

The 80ft-wide pit formed on Friday at the Jack Nicklaus designed Top Rock Golf Course in Missouri.

And remarkably, the main course, which hosted a Champions Tour event in April, is unaffected and still open for play.

An estimated 7,000 cubic feet of material has been displaced by the phenomenon, with experts speculating that recent heavy rain collapsed the pathway to an undiscovered underground cave.

The town had been a coal mining center, but the last mine was closed there more than 50 years ago the head of the district administration, Lyubov Babich, was quoted as saying by the local Valekse news portal on Monday.

Meanwhile, Babich estimated the size at 25 meters in diameter and 4 meters deep, Valekse reported.

"The purpose of GLADIO was to attack civilians, the people - women, children, innocent people, unknown people, far removed from any political game. The reason was quite simple: to force the public to turn to the State and demand greater security. Under a strategy of tension, you 'destabilize in order to stabilize', to create tension within society and promote conservative, reactionary social and political tendencies."
