House, debris over Fla. sinkhole to be removed
SEFFNER, Fla. (AP) — Authorities hope to get a better look at a sinkhole that swallowed a man in his Florida home once demolition crews knock down the remaining walls of the house Monday and begin clearing away the debris.
The remainder of the house and its contents will be dragged toward the street so crews can recover items inside and keep debris from falling into the hole, Hillsborough County spokesman Willie Puz said Monday morning. Authorities were still not certain exactly how big the sinkhole is.
Crews on Sunday razed more than half the home, managing to salvage some keepsakes for family members who lived there.
