A father and son were rescued by emergency response officials after they were stuck hiking along a Southern California Edison Service Road in Saugus.

Lt. Bryan Aguilera of the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station said the two were stranded on a road after one of the individuals injured one of his legs Friday morning.

The call for the incident came in at 10:42 a.m.
