Sinkhole.



Crews responded to the scene after a school bus reportedly became stuck in a sinkhole in Philadelphia's Kensington neighborhood.

Officials say the incident was reported around 3:30 p.m. Friday at the 400 block of E. Ontario Street.


Chopper 3 was over the scene where it appears the front wheel of the bus got caught in the sinkhole.


Officials tell CBS 3 Eyewitness News no one inside the bus was injured.


The Philadelphia Water Department responded to the scene. They say a large hole in the sewer is what led to the sinkhole.


Water service has been fully restored to about 20 customers who were affected, according to the Water Department.


C and D Streets will remain closed.


Crews will begin repairs Saturday morning.
