Baltimore sinkhole:
A giant sinkhole has opened up in a residential neighbourhood of north-east Baltimore in the US, forcing locals to evacuate. After two days of heavy rain and bad weather the ground caved in and a huge crater swallowed up part of the street, burying train tracks under a pile of rubble. Measuring a block long, the sinkhole sucked in several cars and forced the evacuation of a row of houses. According to local media, witnesses said the ground shook as the sinkhole expanded and it appeared to be a landslide. There were no reports of injuries. Report by Sarah Kerr.
