SHERIFF'S OFFICE GEARING UP FOR HOLIDAY WEEKEND  
Colorado River - The Mohave County Sheriff's Office is gearing up for what is anticipated as a busy holiday weekend.
Numerous boaters are expected on the Colorado River for Memorial Day, traditionally the busiest summer time holiday on the Colorado River. In anticipation of the influx of boaters, MCSO personnel have been readying the fleet consisting of 10 boats that are permanently stationed on Lake Havasu and more at other points. Personnel are also drawing up their focus points for the weekend.
"We will be on the lookout for the standard infractions," said Sheriff Tom Sheahan. "We will be strictly enforcing the OUI (Operating Under the Influence) laws as well as looking for boaters operating their vessels recklessly. We will also be patrolling Thompson Bay looking for people operating above a wakeless speed in the no wake zone. That is a big safety issue," Sheriff Sheahan said.
"Another area of focus will be excessively noisy boats, a problem that has caught the attention of more and more Lake Havasu City area residents. In addition to the safety regulations that we will be enforcing, we will also be on the lookout for these infractions. We hope all of the visitors to the Colorado River have a great and safe holiday weekend. As always, safety is our number one goal," Sheriff Sheahan said.
Off the river, the Sheriff, along with all law enforcement agencies will be watching for Driving Under the Influence, people not wearing seat belts, and children not restrained properly in vehicles. With the terrorist level back up at HIGH, law enforcement will be on the lookout for any suspicious activity.

FATAL ACCIDENT-CENTENNIAL
 Arizona Strip - Mohave County Sheriff’s Deputies investigated a fatal accident that occurred in the Arizona Strip Saturday morning. According to reports, a 13 year old boy was driving a quad with his 8-year-old brother sitting in front of him on the quad. The vehicle was going approximately 10 to 15 miles per hour southwest of the Store House in Centennial Park. The elder brother attempted a left-hand turn and the quad rolled over on top of the younger brother. He was pronounced dead at the scene. No charges are going to be filed in the case. Neither of the boys were wearing helmets at the time of the incident.
Editor's Note: I have personally known people that have lost children family members on these recreational vehicles. It is something they have to learn to live with the rest of their lives. Everyone should always dress appropriately, i.e. helmets, etc., when riding quads and similar recreational vehicles.
