Bus swallowed by massive sinkhole in Multan

MULTAN: In a shocking incident, the collapse of a road near MDA roundabout in Multan created a massive sinkhole which has swallowed a Metro feeder bus.

The bus tardily skidded into the chasm created at the center of the road stretch which crumbled away owing to the weight of the bus. Fortunately, no casualty happened as about a dozen people were on board, who right away got down of it as the bus began dropping off.

 

The complete bus was swallowed by the sinkhole except for its head spreading panic in the nearby houses for fear of their buildings’ getting affected.

ARY correspondent said it was a newly-constructed artery which was made over a nullah. Police had cordoned off the road and blocked traffic for the rescue work.

He said a gas pipeline also got leaked because of the accident.
