Rescuers from the CHP and the Ventura County Fire Department worked to free Juan Garcia, 54, of Encino after his car skidded about 150 feet off the road and overturned in a nearby riverbed about 1:45 p.m., Officer Dave Cockrill said.
Garcia suffered minor injuries and was treated in the emergency room of St. John’s Pleasant Valley Hospital in Camarillo.
