Paramedics Rush Two To Trauma Center After Vehicle Goes Down Cliff Near Sylmar

Early this morning (11/23/25)4:22 a.m. to 13119 N. Kagel Canyon Road, the Los Angeles Fire Department reported that LAFD and LA County Fire personnel worked side-by-side to rescue two people after their vehicle fell approximately 70 feet over the side of a cliff in Kagel Canyon.

Firefighters hiked down the slope to reach and treat both patients, so an LAFD air ambulance could safely hoist a 35-year-old woman in serious condition and a 35-year-old man with stable vital signs. Both were airlifted directly to a local trauma center.

Thank you, LA County Fire's exceptional teamwork in the air and on the ground from both agencies brought this incident to a safe conclusion.
