Girl, 11, dies after being hit by falling rock in Forest Falls

FOREST FALLS, Calif.

The county coroner said Taylor Vejar of Rancho Cucamonga was hiking near a waterfall in Forest Falls on Monday when a boulder fell on her head.

She was pronounced dead at the scene.

Two others were hurt, including a teenage boy who broke a foot.

County fire officials said heavy rain the night before may have led to the rockslide.
