Broken Water Pipe Causes Sinkhole in Pacific Beach

A broken water pipe caused a sinkhole in one Pacific Beach neighborhood early Saturday.

San Diego City water crews were working to repair a water main break that occurred just after 3:30 a.m. at Thomas and Ingraham streets.

The flooding caused a sinkhole that officials worried may swallow two cars parked on the street.

They were able to find the vehicles' owners in time to have the cars moved.

Despite the damage, there were no road closures, San Diego Police said.
