Hola Mark, List, nice  catch...
Based on the photo, the only interpretation that appears  sensible:

"Investigating the hole, measuring roughly 2-feet across and  5-feet deep, 
Davidson, 57, said he doesn't believe it was caused by animals,  lightning, or 
"blue ice" falling from an airplane."

...is that Davidson  himself is 2-feet across and 5-feet tall, though he 
doesn't look that broad nor  that short.  Maybe they got confused with Buddy 
Cianci?
Saludos, Doug
