DALY CITY, Calif. - Crews in Daly City on Tuesday morning were working to get an SUV out of a sinkhole in the middle of a neighborhood after the vehicle nosedived into the parting roadway in the pounding rains.
It appears as though there was a water main break near Abbot and Castle streets, which flooded with water and mud sometime about 1 a.m.
Water was rushing down the slope.

Police also woke up the owner about 4 a.m.
"That's my only car," Cho Cho. said. "This is wild."
