Fire Chief David Johnson was called by Calhoun 911 to go to 182 Country Lanes, Mt. Zion, WV for a strange phenomena in the backyard of one of the resident’s in the Trailer park. An approximate 1.5’ x 1.5’ hole appeared suddenly and was discovered when the tire of an empty trailer sitting in the yard fell into it. When Johnson investigated it the depth was at least 5 foot deep and the pole he used to investigate it with hit something solid.
Although nothing was certain, the Fire Chief thought perhaps it was an old septic tank but told the resident that he would likely need to get an excavator in to dig further into it.
