The sports utility vehicle (SUV) that plunged off a Northern California cliff into the Pacific Ocean last week, killing a family of eight, may have been driven off the coastal highway intentionally, police said late Sunday.
The GMC Yukon appears to have been stopped by the side of the road in Mendocino County, about 180 miles north of San Francisco, before accelerating to as fast as 90 mph and hurtling off a cliff, acting Assistant CHP Chief Greg Baarts, told news media.
