UK: Major incident declared over giant sinkhole at Shropshire Canal
A major incident has been declared at a Shropshire canal where a giant hole emerged, leaving boats stricken in the cavity or teetering on the edge of the drop. The incident on a stretch of the Llangollen Canal in Whitchurch has been blamed by engineers on an "embankment failure", with its collapse causing water to rush into a nearby field - and the canal bottom to fall away, leaving a trench.
