Man Killed When he Plunges to his Death in Grand Canyon South Rim

A man was killed in his car after it plunged 600 feet off the edge of the Grand Canyon South Rim early Monday morning. A written statement said:

Rescue crews found the vehicle about 600 feet down in the canyon and recovered the man's body shortly after. Suicide has not been ruled out at this time, but investigators will be conducting a full inquiry in to the man's death. At this time, the man has not been identified.

There is only one other incident in the past five years where a car has gone over the Grand Canyon.
