Bringing down the sinkhole house in Florida

Bringing down the house in Florida. On Sunday authorities tore down the suburban Tampa home, where a man -- presumed dead -- vanished in a sinkhole in his bedroom. Soil samples showed the ground under the house had been compromised. Two nearby homes are also being evacuated over safety concerns. Sinkholes are common in Florida because of the state's porous geological bedrock.
