Search efforts are underway for a mother and daughter who disappeared when their vehicle was swallowed by a massive sinkhole in Guatemala.
The girl’s father was rescued on Sunday from the hole in Villa Nueva, southwest of the capital, along with three other people.
The sinkhole opened in the middle of the town’s main thoroughfare.
Copious amounts of rain dumped during the region’s rainy season has led to landslides and collapsed roadways.
On Sunday, a crane lifted a blue sedan from the hole.
