Florida Sinkhole That Killed Sleeping Man in 2013 Opens For Third Time
TAMPA – Officials in Hillsborough County reported that the sinkhole in Seffner, which gained national attention in 2013 after swallowing a man, reopened on Monday afternoon. This marks the third time the sinkhole has emerged.
Jon-Paul Lavandeira, the Director of Hillsborough’s Code Enforcement Division, told ABC Action News there is currently no danger to individuals in the vicinity near the hole. County officials have informed nearby residents that they can safely remain in their homes.
Lavandeira mentioned that the sinkhole measures approximately 12 feet by 12 feet, with no indications of overnight growth. The site is closed off to the public and secured by two layers of fencing.
The sinkhole initially appeared on the same property in 2013 and claimed the life of Jeffrey Bush, a 36-year-old man who was sleeping. His body was never recovered.
