Two people are in the hospital after failing 35 feet in a RZR

YUMA -- Two people in Yuma have been flown to a hospital from a 35 foot drop in a RZR. The incident happened around 5:00 pm in the Fortuna Wash area.

Police say the RZR was going south in the wash, when the driver drove up an incline failing to see the trail came to an end. The driver was unable to come to a stop in time and drove off the cliff.

The driver, a 60-year-old man, was seriously injured and was airlifted to a Phoenix area hospital. The passenger, a 51-year-old woman, got minor injuries and received medical treatment on scene.

This case remains under investigation at this time. Alcohol does not appear to be a factor in this collision.
