Man distracted by electronic device dies in fall from cliff

A 33-year-old man, apparently distracted by an electronic device, died when he fell 50 to 60 feet from the top of a cliff in the US state of California.
The incident happened when the man -- who may have been distracted by a cellphone or camera -- fell from the top of Sunset Cliffs on Christmas Day, San Diego lifeguards said.
Lifeguards and San Diego Fire-Rescue Department personnel responded and rappelled to the bottom of the cliffs, where they attempted to revive and rescue the man, Los Angeles Times reported.
He died at the scene.
Witnesses told lifeguards that the man may have been distracted by some kind of an electronic device, Marine Safety Lieutenant Rich Stropky said yesterday.

No further details were immediately available, the report said.
