Furthermore, the sinkhole was measured 300-plus feet before but now, it continue to spread swallowing surrounding trees.

It was a flammable gas that can cause a disastrous explosion in a small spark spilling in environment.

Furthermore, the commercial mining company, the Texas Brine is also responsible to keep the residents away from any treats. They are working with the local police to force them to evacuate but others are showing their hesitance due to their properties.
