Nicolas Cage's $10.5 million (£7.75 million) Malibu mansion was hit by a dramatic driveway collapse on Tuesday after a roughly 30-by-30-foot hole opened outside the beachfront property, with coastal erosion reportedly contributing to the damage.

The collapse happened early on Tuesday, 8 September, as Southern California faced dangerous surf and coastal flooding amid the lingering effects of Hurricane Marie. It also resulted in a gas leak, prompting emergency crews and utility workers to shut off services while officials assessed the area.
