Deadly SUV cliff crash may have been intentional, California officials say


SAN FRANCISCO — California Highway Patrol officials say preliminary evidence shows the cliff crash that killed a Washington state family may have been intentional. Capt. Greg Baarts with the CHP Northern Division says information pulled from the SUV’s software shows the vehicle was stopped at the highway pullout before it accelerated straight off the cliff.

Baarts says the electronic information combined with the lack of skid marks led officials to believe it was intentional.

A Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office spokesman says authorities believe at least one felony was committed but declined to specify.

Baarts told the media Sunday night that the vehicle had a reading of 90 mph, but that doesn’t mean the SUV was traveling at the speed and a comprehensive investigation is still ongoing.

Authorities said they believe there is intent because of air bag evidence and because there was no tire friction by the cliff’s edge, CBS affiliate KOIN-TV reports.
