Sinkhole Swallows Two Cars in China; Three Rescued

A sinkhole in Hebei, China, swallowed two cars on June 4, 2025, at around 3 pm. Three people inside the vehicles were rescued by local authorities and treated for minor injuries. Dashcam footage shows the moment the road collapsed, revealing a large hole that engulfed the cars. A spokesperson for the local government stated, "We responded immediately to the incident. Our priority was the safety of those involved." Preliminary investigations suggest that the sinkhole was caused by underground pipe leakage that weakened the road's foundation over time. The incident highlights the importance of regular infrastructure inspections and maintenance to prevent such occurrences. Road repairs are currently underway.
