40 Foot Sinkhole at Corvette Museum Bowling Green KY

Collapse at National Corvette Museum sends cars into sinkhole



The Bowling Green Fire Department was on the scene this morning. The sinkhole opened under the dome part of the building.

"As it started happening, it triggered an alarm, so the security company called an employee," Museum Executive Director Wendell Strode said.

The alarm, which was triggered at 5:38 a.m., also resulted in a call to the fire department.

Strode has not been allowed into the collapsed area.

"It's about 20 feet deep. As best as I can see it is about as big as the pedestal area where we had the cars displayed," Strode said.
