Deputies rescue six people stranded in Berdoo Canyon area

Some people who left their disabled vehicles in a remote area of Berdoo Canyon are safe after deputies located them as they walked to find help.

Deputies were dispatched to the area of Dillon Road and Berdoo Canyon Road just after 7:00 p.m. Monday to assist some people who left their disabled vehicle and had become lost.

Then a second call came in just after 7:30 p.m. about another car that was also stuck and the occupants had forged ahead on foot, getting lost as well.

Once deputies determined the exact location of everyone, they set out in the Sheriff's Rescue 9 helicopter and transported all to safety. At that time, deputies were informed of one last person who needed assistance. Another trip was made to bring in that person.

Six people were transported. They say there were no reported injuries, and no additional information is available.
