In Brno, a sweeping vehicle fell through the sidewalk on Grmelova Street into the basement of a nearby demolished house, plunging approximately two meters deep. The incident occurred in the morning, and firefighters reported the accident on social media shortly after it happened. During the extraction of the vehicle, the street was closed to traffic, although since it is not heavily trafficked, no significant delays occurred. Firefighters worked from two units to recover the vehicle that had become stuck due to the structural void left by the demolished building.

The local authorities, particularly the firefighting service, kept the public informed via their Threads account, highlighting that there were no injuries and that emergency services were not required at the scene. The timely response and coordination among the firefighting units ensured a safe and efficient recovery process, allowing the street to be cleared soon after. Local residents and commuters were advised to be aware of potential short-term disruptions during the extraction operation.

This unusual incident raises questions about the stability of construction sites and the surrounding infrastructure. The falling of the vehicle into the cellar area reflects the potential dangers associated with urban demolition projects and the importance of thoroughly assessing ground integrity during such endeavors. Although this occurrence did not result in major injuries or traffic issues, it serves as a reminder for authorities to monitor ongoing structural removals in urban environments more closely.
