Tunnel found in Florida leading to a bank

https://www.nbc-2.com/story/39877678/tunnel-leading-to-bank-found-in-south-florida

Authorities are investigating after a tunnel reportedly leading to a bank was discovered in Pembroke Pines Wednesday.

Officers responded to what appeared to be a sinkhole in the area of Flamingo Road and Pines Boulevard near a Chase bank, but it turned out to be a tunnel that ran toward the bank.

You mean, it's possible to just tunnel under a wall? Never in a million years would I have guessed that.
