Girl dies in PWC accident
Friday drowning victim identified as transient

By David Bell
Saturday, July 5, 2008 9:24 PM MST

Lake Havasu and the Colorado River have claimed two lives in as many days, as a second person was killed on the water Saturday.

San Bernardino County Sheriff’s officials said a personal watercraft and boat collided in the river north of Lake Havasu, near the Needles Bridge Saturday at about 5:30 p.m.

“A 19-year-old female was pronounced dead at the scene and a 14-year-old female was air lifted to Las Vegas in extremely critical condition,” said Sheriff’s spokesperson Cindy Beavers. “Cause of the crash remains under investigation.”

The first death occurred Friday in the Bridgewater Channel. Lake Havasu City Police Lt. Rich Sloma said law enforcement is waiting on toxicology reports to determine exact cause of death.

“The victim of the drowning was identified as Jimmy Dale Maguglin, 48, a transient,” Sloma said. “Alcohol is believed to be a factor in the incident.”

Bystanders found Maguglin floating face down in the channel off London Bridge Beach Park Friday afternoon, in almost the same spot he was rescued and resuscitated by Lake Havasu City Fire Department personnel two weeks ago.

San Bernardino County Sheriff’s personnel are also keeping an eye on another incident Saturday. At 3:26 p.m. a call came in of serious injury at Copper Canyon.

“It was a jumper from the rocks in the canyon, though we’re not yet sure if it was in the canyon or outside at the entrance,” Beavers said. “He is a male in his early 20s and he was transported.”

Havasu Regional Medical Center staff stabilized the unidentified man and prepared him to be airlifted to Sunrise Hospital in Las Vegas.

The victim’s condition is unknown at this time.

Put your seat belt on. Your going to love this.

Its a '72 Super Beetle. When I got it it had been hit in the left rear. So the people hacked( yes HACKED) the rear off and cut up the rear fenders. It also looks like it was pushed into something after getting hit in the rear. So theycut part of the nose of. Then they fit what looked to be late '60's fenders on the front and HACKED the hood to fit a narrow eye nose. Mind you I found most of this after I got it home. The motor, 1600 single port, was sitting behind the car not in it. They said it ran when they pulled it. That there is another story. I found a Baja glass kit for a Super. Here it is as before I started working on it last week. Oh and these pic's do it justice.

That's a shame how people hack $hit up!. :beat Here's mine the day I picked it up, it's a 65-66 but it's registered as 59,LOL, according to the numbers it has a 71 1600 dual port in it, supposedly it's new and I pulled the valve covers and it's super clean!.. Had to rewire the whole thing and re do the interior, but it's rust free, it's a fun car and it sure gets good mileage!.. :good

Nope. Never did. I don't think a standard beetle one will be wide enough. I haven't looked for one for a super.
