Two Los Angeles County sheriff's
deputies were airlifted to a hospital Sunday after their patrol car
overturned in Malibu, authorities said.
About 6:35 p.m., the deputies were
driving along Kanan Dume Road near Latigo Canyon Road when their patrol
car did not handle a turn properly, struck a guardrail and flipped over, Sgt.
Edward Sheridan said.
The two deputies -- a man and a woman --
were airlifted to UCLA Medical Center in moderate condition, Sheridan said.
Kanan Dume Road was shut down in both
directions at Latigo Canyon Road, and the California Highway Patrol issued a
SigAlert to warn motorists.
The deputies were responding to reports
of a violent, mentally ill man who was throwing rocks at vehicles near Trancas
Canyon Road and Pacific Coast Highway, about 10 miles from the scene of the
accident, Sheridan said.
The man was taken into custody by a
different squad of deputies and was undergoing a health evaluation,
Sheridan said.
