Days of heavy rain caused plenty of damage and cost at least one driver his car when it fell into a sinkhole that opened up on a road in Athens.
The Athens-Clarke County Police Department posted several pictures of the road collapse on its Facebook page.
The department said Olympic Drive between Hancock Industrial Boulevard and Athena Drive is closed for repairs. There was also damage at Charlie Bolton Road between Lem Edwards and Smithonia Roads. Police did not specify which road the car fell into. They also did not say if there were any injuries. However, a commenter on the post said it was her brother-in-law’s car and “he’s ok.”
Photos from the scene show the car before and after it slipped into the sinkhole.
