But it looks like it's just an accident this time. One vehicle went 20 feet down the cliff off Mulholland Drive at Laurel Canyon Boulevard, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department. "Occupant out. No injuries at this time," they tweeted.

Earlier today, mystery has surrounded bandits who apparently stole Charlie Sheen's car (seen in photo) and dumped if off Mulholland. Later, a second car was found 200 yards away.

Update: The LAPD is looking into this as it actually could be connected, they say.

Update #2: An LAFD spokesman said the driver self extricated and declined treatment from paramedics, who then left the scene.

Update #3: The LAPD says it was just an accident and does not appear to be connected to the other two cars.
