Sinkhole Swallows Man in Florida

I doubt this has been posted already, it's only about two hours old. This is a news story I could [i]dig[/i]. http://www.cnn.com/2013/03/01/us/florida-sinkhole/index.html?hpt=hp_c1 [quote]Seffner, Florida (CNN) -- The ground just swallowed him up. A Florida man fell into a sinkhole that opened suddenly Thursday night beneath the bedroom of his suburban Tampa home, calling out to his brother for help as he fell, the brother said Friday. "I ran toward my brother's bedroom because I heard my brother scream," Jeremy Bush told CNN's "AC360." "Everything was gone. My brother's bed, my brother's dresser, my brother's TV. My brother was gone." Bush frantically tried to rescue his brother, Jeff Bush, by standing in the hole and digging at the rubble with a shovel until police arrived and pulled him out, saying the floor was still collapsing. "I couldn't get him out. I tried so hard. I tried everything I could," he said through tears. "I could swear I heard him calling out."[/quote]The body has yet to be found. Officials say it's too dangerous to go near the hole, as it's still growing and could engulf the entire house.
