Tuesday's incident comes that same week one person was injured in a skydiving accident at the same location.
A skydiving instructor broke her leg and ankle after trying to help a student safely land Sunday. The student lost stability in the air and the instructor helped the student regain control by pulling the student's parachute, according to Sky Dive San Diego.
The instructor then pulled her parachute at a lower than normal altitude and was slightly off course, leading to her injuries. The student landed safely. The instructor was part of a two-person instructional team working with the student.
That incident is currently under investigation.
