Two of the three women killed in a boating collision at Frank G. Bonelli Regional Park this weekend have been identified as Mari-Con Yeso, 34, of Escondido, and Aurora Yeso, 59.
The name of the third woman, believed to be a relative of the two others, had still not been released late Sunday, and officials said they were still attempting to notify her next of kin.
The three died Saturday, after their wave runner jet ski collided with a 20-ft power boat in Puddingstone Reservoir.
Three men on the power boat were airlifted to Los Angeles County USC Medical Center with serious injuries. A woman in her 20's, who was also on the boat, was taken by ambulance to another hospital with less serious injuries.
"The circumstances of the incident are currently under investigation," said Hugo Maldonado with L.A. County Department of Parks and Recreation. "It appears both vessels were engaged in a turn, and as they were turning, one vessel collided with the other."
Investigators say the lake was unusually crowded for an October day.
It's not clear if the victims were wearing life jackets. Investigators say they have no reason to believe alcohol was involved, but the cause of the collision is under investigation.
