LAKE HAVASU CITY – Two people were killed and another was critically injured when two boats collided Friday at Lake Havasu. Personnel from the Mohave and San Bernardino County Sheriff’s offices and the Lake Havasu City police and fire departments responded at 7:00 p.m. to the mouth of the Colorado River.
Acting Mohave County Sheriff’s office spokeswoman Sandy Edwards said the reporting party advised multiple injured victims were still in the water after two boats crashed. She said deputies arriving by boat discovered a large debris field and multiple other boats in the area.
