'''October 13, 1978 [The Catalina Islander]:''' “ Car accident claims life. Shortly after midnight Tuesday morning, October 9, Ramon Villar lost his life in a car accident. The accident occurred one half mile above the check gate on the Summit Road. The driver apparently lost control of the car which went over the embankment, rolled several times before lodging upside down against a tree. Leon Martin, driver of the car, crawled from beneath the car and went for help. At approximately 1 AM the Los Angeles sheriff's, County Fire Department, Baywatch Paramedics and one squad of the Avalon Fire Department responded to the call. Combined operations began immediately to remove the passenger from the car. Both men were transported to the Avalon Municipal Hospital, Ramon Villar was pronounced dead on arrival and Leon Martin was held for treatment and observation.”
