A woman was injured Sunday when she slipped and fell from a La Jolla Shores cliff known as “The Clam,” the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department said.
According to the department’s Twitter post Sunday afternoon, the unidentified woman was a tourist visiting from New York.
The department’s emergency personnel, along with San Diego lifeguards, worked to rescue the injured victim, who was secured to a stretcher and raised to the clifftop by first responders using a rope system.
There were no details about how seriously the woman was injured, or what caused her to slip.
