    Woman jumps off California St Overpass 101 Freeway

    Ventura Police Department – Incident Press Release

    On October 12th at 2:23 PM officers were dispatched to a call of a female possibly threatening to jump off the California St. overpass at Highway 101.  An officer responding to the call saw the victim, later identified as a 61-year-old female, sitting down next to the railing on the south side of the bridge.  As the officer was approaching the subject she suddenly stood up and jumped over railing.  The victim landed on the right shoulder of the freeway which was approximately 20 feet below. 

    Upon landing, the victim sustained severe non-life threatening injuries to her legs.  She was not hit by any passing vehicles.

    Officers immediately stopped the southbound lanes of the highway and rendered aid until Ventura City Fire personnel arrived on scene.  The subject was treated at the scene and later transported to VCMC for treatment of her injuries.  She will undergo a mental health evaluation when released.

    The southbound lanes of Highway 101 were reopened after approximately 15-20 minutes.
