Man Survived Car Crash by Eating Bugs

A Los Angeles man survived a car crash by eating bugs and drinking from a creek for six days.

The 67-year-old man was driving on a road near Lake Hughes when his car veered off the road a fell into a ravine.

For six days, his family received no contact from him and they began to worry. They checked his Facebook and his voicemail for clues and then began searching for him along all possible routes that he could have traveled. His son found his car at the bottom of a ravine, at least a 200-foot drop from the road.

The son descended to rescue his father by climbing from tree to tree.

His father was transported to a local hospital where he was treated for a broken collarbone and several other minor injuries. He told his rescuers that he survived by eating bugs and drinking water from a nearby creek. He is expected to make a full recovery.

San Clemente Beach Stairway is Closed after Accident

A man was seriously injured when the stairway he was using for access to a San Clemente beach collapsed. Reportedly, the man was either ascending or descending the steep stairway when one of the boards gave way and the man fell. The accident resulted in a hip displacement and a minor head injury, and the man was taken to a local hospital, according to authorities.

The city of San Clemente closed the staircase and put up barricades to prevent anyone from using it, while lifeguards check the other slabs for security. Apparently, the lifeguards have found a few other loose boards so far.

The staircase provided access to the 204 beach, a popular destination for surfers. The beach can now be accessed by another staircase at Dije Court and Buena Vista, or by using the San Clemente beach trail.
