Home Collapses Into Jersey Shore Inlet Amid Storms, Coastal Flooding

A home collapsed into the inlet along the southern end of the Jersey shore Saturday amid an intense rush of water during a storm-swelled high tide Saturday morning. 

The strength of high tide caused the home to collapse and it was sent flowing down the Grassy Sound Inlet near the North Wildwood Bridge in Wildwood, authorities say.

Tony Deutsch, who runs the Facebook page WatchTheTramcarPleasedotCom, told NBC10 in Philadelphia that the home floated in the inlet several city blocks.

The home, which was originally in the north end of the community, is now on the south side.

There were no immediate reports of any injuries.
