SANDWICH – A sinkhole opened up in a Sandwich parking lot Friday morning, trapping a catch-basin cleaning truck.

The pavement gave way in the parking lot of Horizons on Cape Cod Bay near Town Neck Beach around mid-morning.

Reports from the scene indicate the truck was working in the lot when the rear wheels began to sink.

There were no injuries. Crews were on scene late in the morning working to remove the truck and fix the sinkhole.

The parking lot and nearby road remained open. The cause of the sinkhole was not immediately known.
