Massive sinkhole collapses soccer field at Illinois park
A massive sinkhole opened up at a soccer field in Alton, Illinois, on Wednesday. A 100-foot-wide sinkhole opened beneath a soccer field in Illinois on Wednesday as a result of a collapse at a nearby underground mine, officials said. The sinkhole formed at around 10 a.m. at Gordon Moore Park in Alton. Surveillance video from the City of Alton shows the moment the sinkhole opens and swallows a light pole on the field in a cloud of dust. Drone video shows the aftermath of the crater in the center of the field.
