Florida man swallowed by sinkhole under bedroom
Seffner, Florida: In a matter of seconds, the earth opened under Jeff Bush's Florida bedroom and swallowed him up like something out of a horror movie. About the only thing left was the TV cable
A dresser and the TV set had vanished down the hole, along with most of Bush's bed.
"All I could see was the cable wire running from the TV going down into the hole. I saw a corner of the bed and a corner of the box spring and the frame of the bed,'' Jeremy Bush said.
At a news conference Friday night, county administrator Mike Merrill described the home as "seriously unstable.'' He said no one can go in the home because officials were afraid of another collapse and losing more lives. The soil around the home was very soft and the sinkhole was expected to grow.
