LA JOLLA, Calif. -- More than 20 homes have been threatened along a La Jolla hillside Wednesday as a 50-yard-wide, cone-shaped sinkhole swallowed part of a street leading into the ritzy area.

There were no immediate reports of injuries following the slide, which started around 9 a.m., a San Diego Fire-Rescue dispatcher said.

The sinkhole is in the middle of Soledad Mountain Road and is about 12 feet deep, Maurice Luque of the San Diego Fire Department said.

Love Mama, I know you're in that area - and I'm sure there are others - I hope everyone and their homes are OK.

Hoping all of our WSer's in the area are good.

It's funny, but that's the first thing I think of now when I hear of this type of thing and I know we have members there!

Me, too, Irish.

Me, too, Irish.

Love Mama checked in in the Jury Room, did you see that?

I live about 20 miles north of La Jolla. Sinkholes have begun to be a huge problem all over the San Diego area.
