| Was there a 'burrrp'? [FoxNews] Sinkholes are common in Florida and as much of the central part of the state sits on highly porous carbonate rock. The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office says it is safe for residents of a Seffner neighborhood to remain in their homes despite a sinkhole that has reopened at the same site that swallowed a Florida man while he slept in 2013. County officials say they received a call around 4:30 p.m. on Monday that the sinkhole had reopened and fire crews, along with deputies were called out to the site. John-Paul Lavandeira with Hillsborough County code enforcement says engineers will be on-site Tuesday to assess the sinkhole, which he estimates to be about 12 feet by 12 feet. In March 2013, the sinkhole opened underneath a home, swallowing Jeffrey Bush, who was asleep in his bedroom. His brother, Jeremy Bush, tried desperately to save him but was unable to. Rescue crews never recovered the body. |
