A large sinkhole collapsed an intersection in south St. Louis, just off Interstate 55.

The sinkhole opened at the intersection of Blow Street and Idaho Avenue this week. According to Nick Dunne with St. Louis Mayor Tishaura Jones' office, workers were alerted to a six-inch water main break at the intersection Tuesday.

"The sinkhole grew around the main break overnight, so our crews are investigating the cause of the sinkhole as they work to repair the water main," Dunne said in a statement.

By Wednesday morning, the sinkhole stretched about 40 feet in length and width and about 25 feet deep.
