Falmouth home partially swallowed by sinkhole to be demolished

"Hundreds of thousands of Nova Scotians diligently pay house insurance monthly and annually for this sort of situation," he said. Heather Strickey and her 16-year-old daughter, Julia, were inside the home when the sinkhole first developed. 'I think there's someone downstairs'While on the phone with a dispatcher, Julia came into the room and said, "Mom, I think there's someone downstairs." Firefighters, too, went in to salvage a few items such as family photos and documents from the end of the house farthest from the sinkhole.
