THAILAND – Thai authorities rushed to contain a massive sinkhole near a hospital in Central Bangkok that disrupted utilities and traffic, officials said on Wednesday.

The 164 feet deep sinkhole extended about 900 square metres in front of the hospital.

Footage on social media showed the road slowly sinking as water poured out from a drainage pipe, dragging down electricity poles.

The hospital announced that it would not take on patients during the incident.

By noon, authorities said they had halted further ground movement and were monitoring the site closely.
