A driver is injured after his car fell into a large pit that opened up on a suburban road after heavy rain and flooding.
A rainstorm pummelling the Chicago area has ripped open a sinkhole large enough to swallow three cars.
One driver was so badly injured he had to be taken to hospital.Chicago Police Department spokesman Mike Sullivan said the gaping hole opened up in a street on the city's South Side, near Lake Michigan.
He said the injured man was driving when the road buckled and caved in.
He was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital, but his injuries are not life-threatening.
The owner of one of the two parked cars that fell in was about to leave for work and watched it slide into the pit.
