50-Foot Sink Hole in Bay Ridge Swallows Tree Whole -- UPDATE

The Brooklyn Eagle has photos of the giant sink hole that opened up on the sidewalk in front of a 92nd St. yesterday.

The paper quotes a resident reported watching in shock as the sink hole literally swallowed a whole tree that stood on the sidewalk and sucked it below ground.

The block of 92nd Street between Third Avenue and Ridge Boulevard is closed as emergency crews deal with the massive crater.

UPDATE: Another sinkhole appears, and residents and officials worry that the worst is yet to come. Brooklyn Eagle
