SAN ANTONIO, US:
A San Antonio official said that a 60-year-old man has been rescued after two cars were submerged inside a sinkhole created when a large sewer line ruptured.

Mr O'Neil said that the man and woman were taken to the hospital and are "in good shape." Authorities were trying to determine if there was another person inside one of the vehicles.
