At about 8:40 p.m., deputies arrived at the scene and found the man, “who had apparently climbed up the embankment after driving his vehicle off the edge,” the release states. An emergency medical team transported the man to a local hospital for examination and treatment. Deputies spotted the man’s car about 300 feet down the embankment; a Sheriff’s cliff rescue unit assessed the car and concluded there were no other victims.
The man was placed on a psychiatric hold, based on the deputies’ observations at the scene.
