sinkhole

A giant sinkhole measuring up to 330-feet-deep has swallowed a number of homes in Guatemala City early Friday morning.

Up to 1,000 people have been evacuated from their homes, officials said. No one was hurt in the incident. Three people that were reportedly missing earlier were found, officials announced.
