John Brothers took an unexpected ride down a steep cliff at the rear of his residence on Cliff Drive Tuesday evening. According to reports, Mr. Brothers accidentally stepped on the accelerator instead of the brake when driving into his front parking area. Significant damage was done as the car with passenger passed between the garage and the house before dropping approximately 100 feet. Both Brothers and his passenger were able to walk back up to the house before County and City Fire Departments and Sheriff Deputies responded. The condition of driver and passenger was unknown at press time.
