Rescuers fear sinkhole collapse as they continue search for missing grandma Elizabeth Pollard
Message on bullets fired by healthcare CEO's assassin bear eerie link to book condemning insurance companies
UnitedHealthcare CEO was facing DOJ probe for insider trading when he was killed in targeted NYC shooting Limani praised the crews who went into the abandoned mine to help remove material in the search for Pollard in the village of Marguerite, about 40 miles east of Pittsburgh.“They would come out of there head to toe covered in mud, exhausted. And while they were getting pulled up, the next group’s getting dropped in. And there was one after the next after the next,” Limani said.
Searchers were using electronic devices and cameras as surface digging continued with the use of heavy equipment, Bacha said. In the coming days, they plan to greatly widen the surface hole, with winter weather forecast in the region.Geological engineer Paul Santi said the chances of Pollard surviving if she slipped into the sinkhole were “pretty small.”“There’s rock and soil and things that could have buried her. There is water that could have filled it. You have to go through with the rescue.
Police said they found Pollard’s car parked behind Monday’s Union Restaurant in Marguerite, about 20 feet from the sinkhole.
