CNN —Rescuers are searching for a missing Pennsylvania grandmother who is believed to have fallen deep into a sinkhole while searching for her cat with her young granddaughter, authorities said. During their search, police discovered Pollard’s vehicle parked near a restaurant with her five-year-old granddaughter inside – and a fresh, deep sinkhole just steps away. The girl is now with her parents and wasn’t able to give police any details about what happened, Limani said. An image provided by the Pennsylvania State Police shows the top of a sinkhole in Marguerite, Pennsylvania, where rescuers were searching for a woman who disappeared. While no sounds have been picked up by monitoring equipment, the rescue teams spotted a shoe in the sinkhole using a camera, Bacha said.

A search and rescue effort was underway in Pennsylvania on Tuesday after a grandmother searching for her cat appears to have plunged into a sinkhole that authorities said was at least 30 feet deep. After lowering rover and pole cameras into the former coal mine, authorities heard no sounds but saw what seemed to be a shoe, Pleasant Valley Volunteer Fire Company Chief John Bacha told reporters. Rescue efforts continue for a 64-year-old woman who may have fallen into a sinkhole while looking for her missing cat in Unity Township, Westmoreland County. Pennsylvania State Police“It’s a modern shoe — not something you’d find in a coal mine in Marguerite in 1940,” Bacha said, noting the area where the sinkhole was discovered. One of the troopers searching for Pollard nearly fell into the sinkhole, which Limani said was roughly 15 to 20 feet from Pollard's car.
