LEESBURG, Fla. - A beauty supply business in central Florida has been swallowed up by the Earth.
People living nearby the Leesburg business say a sinkhole has continued to grow even larger and they are worried about their homes.
However, city officials say the hole isn't growing, and that things are just moving as it settles.
The hole first caved in last month, and the beauty store's roof is now underground.
