Rumah-Rumah di Amerika Ambruk Ditelan Bumi

Belasan rumah di Kota Lake County, Amerika Serikat (AS) tiba-tiba ambruk ditelan bumi. Polisi pun memerintahkan warga mengungsi dari rumahnya.

10 rumah di kota itu sudah rata dengan tanah. Sedangkan delapan lainnya berada dalam kondisi yang kritis.

Peristiwa tersebut merupakan yang pertama kalinya terjadi di Lake County. Tanah di sekitar kota itu memang diketahui tidak stabil.

“Awalnya pintu dan jendela tidak bisa menutup. Kemudian bangunan rumah mulai retak-retak,” ujar seorang warga Lake County Scott Spivey, seperti dikutip Sky News, Kamis (16/5/2013).

“Sangat menyakitkan melihat rumah kami hancur begitu saja. Kami membangun rumah itu dengan kerja keras,” terang Spivey.

Petugas menyebut warga Lake County masih beruntung karena rumahnya ambruk secara perlahan. Jika tanah dibawah rumah mereka sangat tidak stabil, kediaman mereka itu bisa ambuk dalam sekejap. (ade)
