Earth opens, swallows big truck – Traffic alert!

A huge sink hole on SE 16th/Oak swallowed a fairly large city maintenance truck this afternoon. I understand they were on site working on a water main issue when the earth opened up and swallowed the truck whole. Two city workers were injured but were able to escape the situation on their own. The intersection is closed as they bring in a crane to get the rig out of the hole. Good luck guys.
