Last week crews launched a search and rescue mission for 64-year-old Elizabeth Pollard, who fell into a sinkhole after going out to look for her pet.

Pollard was searching for her cat Dec. 2 behind Monday’s Union Restaurant in Unity when he ground gave way beneath her, and she fell straight down about 30 feet into a sinkhole that opened into the abandoned Marguerite Mine.

Her body was recovered Friday about 12 feet southwest of the sinkhole where she fell, authorities said.

Reporter Patrick Varine was at the scene for several days. He joins host Zac Gibson to talk about this recent tragedy.
