A fall from a cliff in Encinitas has left a man hospitalized at Scripps Memorial Hospital in La Jolla, after sustaining leg injuries and possible internal injuries as well. The fall took place on Tuesday, near Moonlight Beach at around 7:40 p.m.
The man, whose name was not released, was rescued by a lifeguard and firefighters after he was found lying on the beach, injured from the fall. When emergency medical teams arrived, he was treated for fractures to his legs before being transported to Scripps Memorial.
The cliff where the man fell from is in a marked area where signs warn of dangerous cliffs. There is also a fence isolating the cliffs from the main road, according to reports. It is unknown how the man came to fall from the cliff.
