MARCH 11, 2015

OSSINING, NEW YORK

A sinkhole began swallowing four vehicles in a parking lot in Ossining on Tuesday night, police said.

The sinkhole was discovered in a private lot behind a building at 25 Croton Ave. around 10 p.m., village police Sgt. Paul Schemmer said. The lot was apparently built over an old building, Schemmer added.

Croton Avenue near Route 9A was closed for a time but reopened after officials inspected the site. Barriers were put up to keep people away from the sinkhole.
