Los Gatos teen killed in jet ski collision on Bass Lake
The Madera County Sheriff's Office said they responded to the second fatal accident in involving a jet ski on Bass Lake this week.


The Sheriff's office said 14-year-old Kyle Farr of Los Gatos and his 18-year-old friend were riding their personal watercraft in the lake around 11 p.m. on Wednesday when the 14-year-old hit a moored pontoon boat and was ejected into the water.

A local resident heard the cries for help and rescued the two teens with his boat. Once on shore, deputies and paramedics attempted to unsuccessfully to revive Farr. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
