Hidden Valley Road.
Mr. Brett Kyle, 32 years old, of Newbury Park, was driving a his white 2007 Toyota Tacoma westbound on Potrero Road east of Hidden
Valley Road at a high rate of speed. Mr. Kyle left the roadway and traveled into a drainage ditch. As the truck traveled through the drainage
ditch, it struck a drainage pipe and concrete casing causing the vehicle to roll over multiple times. The vehicle came to rest on its passenger
side, and became engulfed in flames with Mr. Kyle trapped inside his vehicle. Two witnesses that were near the collision scene ran to the
burning, overturned truck in an attempt to free the driver. One of the witnesses retrieved a rescue tool from his vehicle allowing the two
citizens to break the window, cut the seat belt, and extricate the driver. Ventura County Fire and American Medical Response arrived on
scene and provided medical care to Mr. Kyle. Mr. Kyle was transported to Los Robles Hospital and Medical Center for his injuries. Mr. Kyle
was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol.
