SACRAMENTO-

The woman rescued from the Sierra has her brother to thank.

Paula Lane’s brother, Gary Lane, used a borrowed CalTrans vehicle to help in the search. He acted on a hunch that his sister and her boyfriend were in the same spot where the two had been off-roading in the past.

Brian Roth says he was with his friend Gary when they found Paula.

“We were not going to come back without her,” he said.
