New Yorkers living in the borough of Brooklyn woke to a strange sight on Tuesday -- a giant sinkhole had swallowed an enormous chunk of road.
The sinkhole, formed by the natural process of erosion, appeared early this morning at an intersection in the neighborhood of Sunset Park, according to the Fire Department.
The gaping hole exposed torn pipes and crushed asphalt at the intersection of Fifth Avenue and 64th Street. No one was hurt.
