According to one resident of the sector, on Sunday three citizens were on the shore fishing. Bad weather caused these people to be swept away by the current of the lake. Only one could be rescued by the settler, who communicated with the aid system ECU 911.

The elements of the GOE arrived immediately to the place and began the search of the disappeared. Two dive groups plunged into the cold waters of Lake San Pablo but could not find them. The search was suspended for the next morning.
