COBB, Calif. – A Tahoe City man sustained major injuries in a Tuesday evening vehicle rollover and was flown to an out-of-county trauma center.

David Mahoney, 47, was injured in the crash and later arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence, according to California Highway Patrol Officer Kory Reynolds.

At 6:05 p.m. Tuesday Mahoney was driving his silver 2004 Toyota Tacoma westbound on Highway 175 east of Harrington Flat Road when he lost control of the pickup and struck an embankment, causing the Toyota to overturn, Reynolds said.

Reynolds said Mahoney was not wearing his seat belt and as a result was partially ejected from the vehicle.

Mahoney was flown to Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital by a REACH air ambulance and was arrested for driving under the influence, Reynolds said.

Mahoney sustained major injuries in the collision, including a fractured skull and fractured vertebrae, Reynolds said.

The collision is still under investigation by CHP Officer Richard Jensen, according to Reynolds.
