A woman who jumped from a dump truck on the Briceland Thorn Road near Huckleberry Hill was badly injured today. According to John Casali who lives nearby, “She was pretty bloody…I covered her with some blankets.”

Casali said the local volunteer fire departments arrived quickly at the scene. “The ambulance showed up and we put her on a stretcher,” he said.

According to Casali, later, a Reach helicopter flew over and may have been going to meet the ground ambulance at a nearby landing zone.

It seems like there is something more to the story… obviously there is limited information at this time but why would she jump from the dump truck? Failed brakes? Kidnapping? Seems fishy

From the cab or the back of the dump truck?

Was the truck going west or east?

Not that it makes much difference to how my own life works out, but it’s hard to visualize it when all I can get is that a woman apparently jumped from a dump truck on at Huckleberry Hill.

I agree. Was she in the truck against her will? Did she go crazy? Was the truck stopped and she thought she could land gracefully? Wtf is going on around here??

And I thought cassali left the area a few years ago?

Don’t know the area, but if it was down hill the answer to why she jumped may be the traditional reason most people jump out of dump trucks. Usually it is the result of poor brake maintenance combined with a driver of limited experience. ‘Course this is Humboldt, so no telling.

Did the dump truck driver stop to help her? If not, is that considered hit and run? Or leaving the scene of an accident?

If you know of specific missing females you should let the sheriff know they are missing. If there is a (road?) Rash of missing women, then lets see a list, so that we can verify this is a thing.

There most definitely is a rash, have you ever heard of the Humboldt 5? They found some girl’s skull down by the river just last year, identified as Danielle Bertolini, a girl missing from the Fortuna area. It stretches back to the 90s in the Karen Mitchell case and Beyond.

Allways been like that..some years ago(between five and ten) a state trooper pulled a guy over headed up towards willow creek and noticed something strange in the bed of his pickup..turned out to be a drugged woman with all her clothes and possesions gone under a tarp with shovels and other digging tools

OUCH! Road rash is serious business. Jumping from a moving vehicle could have killed them.hope they’ll be ok.

This is why I’m not a fan of scanner journalism. It never makes sence or tells the story. It just fill the pages of a blog. What happened to real journalism?

She is a shelter cove woman angry, opened door as a threat to jump and the force of the door going up hill, west, pulled her out. Her head was bleeding quite a bit, road rash on shoulder, one leg hurt real bad. She did not loose consciousness. I kept her talking, slid a clean shirt under her head, and covered her with plastic to keep the rain off. JOHN and BOBBY directed traffic for 20 min. Or more till fire guys, peter and one other man got to the scene and took over. IT really gives you a good feeling to help someone wether you know them or not, you leave feeling warm, satisfied.. IF WE EACH JUST HELPED A STRANGER, FOR NO REASON BUT THEY NEED IT, WHAT A DIFFERENT PLACE THIS WOULD BE. I pray for her recovery and that she grows from this mistake
