Tuolumne County, CA — A large truck has reportedly driven off the Clavey River Bridge in the Stanislaus National Forest.
It is in an area close to Cottonwood Road where much of the current BAER Team work is taking place. The CHP is reporting that it is a hay truck, and it went 100-150 ft. over the bridge. An air ambulance is responding, and the Sheriff’s Office Search and Rescue rope team is on the way. In addition, a hazmat crew is responding because there are reports of diesel fuel running into the river.
We’ll pass along more information as details become available.
