First responders have amassed on the side of State Route 20 near Marina Drive after a traffic collision resulted in a black vehicle landing 100′ off the roadway and upturned on its roof.

The California Highway Patrol Traffic Incident Information page indicates that a truck and black car collided around 12:28 p.m. which sent the black car down an embankment. First responders found a party trapped in the vehicle and successfully extricated them.

Medics packaged the patient who is now being transported to Ukiah Valley Medical Center to be airlifted for treatment.
