A pair of newlyweds from New Jersey were injured Friday afternoon after falling about 25 feet from a cliff ledge overlooking Red Sand Beach in Hana.

According to a Maui Fire Department report, a woman, 26, lost her footing near the edge. Her husband, 29, reached out for her and both ended up falling on the land below.

The man was transported to Maui Memorial Medical Center in serious condition with injuries to his head and legs. His wife was also transported to the hospital in stable condition with back injuries.
