San Diego Sink Hole Makes Street Buckle

18 hours ago

SAN DIEGO (AP) — A sinkhole caused a street to buckle in an upscale
neighborhood Wednesday, leading to evacuations of at least four homes,
authorities said. No injuries were reported.

A hillside home began to collapse and power lines fell, said Maurice
Luque, a spokesman for the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department. Gas and power
supplies were shut off.

At least seven other homes were in danger of being damaged, according
to Gary Hassen, a spokesman for the San Diego Police Department. There
were other homes at the bottom of the hill.

The sinkhole in the La Jolla neighborhood cut in a cone shape and was
about 50 yards long.
