Massive sinkhole swallows Illinois soccer field after mine collapses, official says
CBSN
A park in Alton, Illinois, was closed after a massive sinkhole swallowed part of its soccer field Wednesday morning.
Security footage obtained by CBS affiliate KMOV shows the moment the sinkhole opened up at Gordon Moore Park. It shows a stadium light sinking and plumes of debris billowing into the air.
"It was surreal," Michael Haynes, the director of the city's parks and recreation department, told the station. "Kind of like a movie where the ground just falls out from underneath you."
