The initial call into the OCD Dispatch Center indicated a person had fallen. Further questioning of the caller for an address revealed the person who had fallen was located in Bronson Canyon.

Additional resources were requested with assistance from the helicopter company and the Urban Search & Rescue (USAR) company.

The three hikers encountered an area of very loose, unstable rock which presented precarious footing and resulted in one of the hikers, a female 37, sliding down mid slope of the hillside.

The USAR company repelled mid slope to assess the the injured patient.

The hiker was still unconscious and listed in serious condition as she was air lifted out to an area trauma center.

The two male hikers , 18 and 34, were assisted down the hillside by the USAR company, treated and released at the scene.
