A man who was thrown from his off-road vehicle in a crash near Lake Arrowhead was air lifted with major injuries, sheriff’s officials said.
The victim, Jason Brown, a 43-year-old Irvine resident, was riding on a forest road with family Sunday, July 26, when he hit some steep and uneven roadway and lost control, officials said in a news release.
A helicopter crew flew to the remote area and dropped in two paramedics, who determined Brown’s injuries were major and he needed to be rushed to a trauma center.
The helicopter was unable to land so they hoisted Brown into the fuselage and took him to Arrowhead Regional Medical Center, the release said.
