ORIGINAL STORY:
Crews are working to fix a sinkhole that led to a semi stalling on I-10’s Anthony exit.
The semi has been removed, but crews are still on the scene filling the hole.
Emergency personnel from the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office was called to the scene just before 6 a.m.
Police from the city of Anthony, Texas, are helping with the situation.
An officer told ABC-7 that the driver was not injured.
Vehicles that were stuck along the exit are being redirected through an adjacent road.
If filling the sinkhole doesn’t work, then it is unclear when the area will reopen to traffic, an officer on the scene said.
