Family of eight with famous boy riding a cliff

A family with six children drove from a cliff in the US state of California and ended up in the sea after a fall of about thirty feet.

According to the news channel one of the occupants is Devonte (15). He became world-famous when a photograph of him, taken during a Ferguson protest in Portland, went viral. In the picture he gives a cop a hug.

The SUV, with two women and their six children between the ages of nineteen and twelve, drove into the abyss along the coast in Mendocino County, north of San Francisco. A passerby saw the car lying in the water a few hours later. According to the sheriff, the occupants did not wear a seat belt.

How the car got off the road is not known. No brake marks were found. The sheriff, however, says he has no reason to start from a deliberate action. He keeps a small hope that the three missing children were not in the car after all.
