Victim named in boating accident

— State authorities have identified the woman killed Saturday afternoon in a boating accident on DeGray Lake.

Rebecca Ramos, 31, of Hampton died Saturday after she fell off an inner tube pulled by one boat and was struck by a second boat, according to Keith Stephens, a spokesman with the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission.

Stephens said the driver of the boat that struck Ramos was given a blood alcohol test, which is mandated by state law.

Results are expected in three weeks, he said.
