Skydiver is killed after hitting a tree

Placer County sheriff’s Captain Dennis Walsh said Erik Roner, of Tahoe City, died on Monday during a skydiving accident at a golf course in Squaw Valley, about five miles from Lake Tahoe’s north-west shore.
Witnesses said Roner, 39, was part of a group conducting a skydiving performance before a golf tournament when he hit a tree while trying to land and became entangled high above ground.
