Sinkhole Swallows SUV After Heavy Rainfall In Sheridan
SHERIDAN, Colo. (CBS4) - A driver in Sheridan got an unexpected trip while driving on Oxford Avenue Tuesday night.
Police say a sinkhole opened up big enough to swallow that driver's vehicle. The hole is in near Natches Court -- just west of Santa Fe Drive. Police say the car fell into the hole.
The driver is reportedly okay. Officials say the driver got out before the roadway totally collapsed.
The hole opened up as a severe storm swept through the southern edges of the Denver metro area causing flooded underpasses in the area of the sinkhole.
Oxford Ave. is closed in both directions from Santa Fe Dr. to Clay Street.
