A driver got the fright of his life early on Sunday morning when a sink hole swallowed his Toyota Camry as he sat inside.<\/p>\n
South Australian police were called to St Andrews Crescent in Novar Gardens, a suburb in southwest Adelaide, at 2.15am following reports a car was sinking.<\/p>\n
When officers arrived at the scene, they found the Toyota Camry half submerged in a large hole and the street flooded with water and dirt.<\/p>\n
The street was closed and the police called SA Water for help.<\/p>\n
Images of the car submerged in the sink hole were later shared by police on Facebook.<\/p>\n
The 21-year-old driver was not injured and his car was towed from the scene, officers said.<\/p>\n
St Andrews Crescent was closed while SA Water visited the scene.<\/p>\n
More than 30 homes were without water while repairs were being made, according to the Adelaide Advocate.<\/p>\n
Our community support team is providing them with an interim supply of drinking water, a spokeswoman from SA Water told The Advocate.<\/p>\n
We apologise for the inconvenience, and reassure people we are working as quickly and safely as possible to complete repairs.<\/p>\n
It is not clear whether the road has been reopened.<\/p>\n
