WILMINGTON, Del. (CBS) — A sinkhole opened up in Wilmington, Delaware on Wednesday and put a U.S. Postal Service van at risk.
The sinkhole is on the 800 block of North 9th Street in Wilmington, near Monroe Street. The Wilmington Fire Department received a call around 11:30 a.m. for a vehicle sinking into the hole.
Neighbors witnessed the van going into the sinkhole and told the mail carrier, who was still inside, to get out.
The van fell farther into the hole after the driver exited the van, but it has since been towed out of the hole.
