Wall Police said they respond around 12:26 pm to 1901 State Highway 35 where a sinkhole had developed 30-feet behind the commercial building.

It's estimated that the sinkhole was about 6 feet deep and 15 feet wide and nearly swallowed up a car as the front tires were partially in there already when police arrived.

The car was removed without any issue, the building was temporarily evacuated as a precaution, there was no structural damage to the building and no injuries are being reported.

Wall Police said what caused the sinkhole to open up remains under investigation.
