A Texas woman was rescued from her vehicle after it was swallowed by a surprise sinkhole in El Paso Tuesday evening.
A large water main break caused the pavement to rupture creating the sinkhole which swallowed up the woman's car.
When bystanders and first responders saw the woman inside was trapped they sprang into action and worked together to hold the car above the water so the woman could escape.
Video from Daniel Hernandez showed the car bobbing up and down in the sinkhole after the woman's rescue.
