Guatemala sinkhole. Agatha tropical storm that lasted all weekend, has hit Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras that resulted in serious damage. Torrential rains brought by tropical storm season’s first hit in 2010 Central America and southern Mexico, triggering deadly landslides.
Of the three countries, Guatemala is a country that must bear the greatest damage may be difficult to be rebuilt in the near future. Not only the material loss to be borne, more than that at least 115 residents of Guatemala declared dead.
A local newspaper reports that a security guard were killed when a giant open pit, and the locals claimed a three-storey building and the house fell into the hole. Both of these reports have been confirmed.
Tropical storm itself was not the real problem, this event is the collateral damage caused by the landslides that have triggered the real murderer in this tragedy.
This Avalanche has made major damage, burying the victims, closed roads and bridges to collapse, forcing more than 100,000 people to be evacuated from their homes.
