A major sinkhole in Leonville is causing some major headaches for residents of that small community.

Last Friday's heavy rains caused a massive sinkhole at the intersection of Church Road and Highway 103.

The sinkhole is blocking direct access to town for hundreds who live in a subdivision on the other side.

A temporary fix will be put in place, as the town seeks grant money for a permanent fix.

In the meantime, drivers must detour ten miles, out of their way, to run errands like grocery shopping.
