1.2 million in Japan told to use less water to help rescue man from sinkhole

Hopes faded for a 74-year-old man in Japan whose truck was swallowed by a sinkhole as a difficult rescue operation entered its third night Thursday, with the chasm widening and locals urged to limit water use to aid efforts. The search operation for the man continued but as of Thursday afternoon, he was "nowhere in sight as the hole deepened", a local fire department official was quoted by local media as saying.
