An underground water main break likely caused the hole to form suddenly in a residential area of South Amboy, New Jersey, a city about 20 miles south of Newark, the South Amboy Police Department said in a statement.
There were no reported injuries and no homes were damaged by the crater. Crews were working to secure the area and stop the sinkhole, which encompassed part of a paved street as well as a wooded area, from expanding.
The sinkhole was discovered early on Tuesday, when a man living in the area noticed that his son’s car was no longer in its parking space and reported it stolen, the New Jersey Star-Ledger reported on its website.
In fact, the vehicle had vanished into the sinkhole, the newspaper said.
Too bad the Anti Frum lobby can’t blame Shmiras Shabbos not Hotplates not blame peoples failure to use smoke detectors as the cause of the Tragedy.
Maybe it’s time to realize that not all Tragedies are preventable by not using Hotplates, nor are they preventable by smoke detectors.
Who are you going to blame for the Plane Crash today? Is it because of Frum Jews use of Hotplates or is it because they didn’t use Smoke Detectors or maybe it was G-d himself after all????
Or are we going to blame the fact tat Brooklyn doesn’t have a Burn Unit or other silly stuff.
Did anyone realize yet, that G-d is in charge, after all?
