A HUGE hole has appeared in a building at the intersection of the Midland Highway and Lyons Street, White Hills.
It is understood a red sedan hit a wall on Sunday night after 11pm.
One witness said the car's bonnet went through the wall.
More news:
The building is a commercial premises that was previously home to an Asian goods store.
The damaged wall is often used by an advertising company to promote wares on the busy intersection.
The remains of one advertisement is among a pile of bricks on the footpath, which has been cordoned off.
Pedestrians can still navigate the area, as can cars driving through the intersection.
The Bendigo Advertiser has contacted police and Fire Rescue Victoria and is awaiting confirmation of exactly what happened.
Both services attended the incident.
Paramedics were called but did not treat anyone at the scene, Ambulance Victoria has confirmed.
A previous version of this story incorrectly named a section of Lyons Street as Holdsworth Road. It has since been corrected.
