Theory Number One
The first theory goes something like this: A little before dawn, Bryce drove off the main road and headed up a hill towards a cell tower. He passed the tower, then went down the hill again and started accelerating as he drove towards Castaic Lake. From the top of the hill, he might have had the illusion he was really close to the water, but in reality, he had a 25-foot drop ahead of him.

Police found that the car’s back window was pushed out from the inside. So, they believed he had crashed on his side, realized he was fine and conscious, and scrambled his way out through the back window. As to why he would drive his car off a hill like that – most people assumed it was an act of suicide.
Regardless, police had a more burning question in mind – Where was he?
