There are calls for a jetski rider, who was seen on the same lake as actress Naya Rivera before her presumed death, to be found and be interviewed by police.
The Glee actress is feared drowned while boating with her four-year-old son on Lake Piru, 90 kilometres northwest of Los Angeles on Wednesday.

An extensive search was launched to find Rivera after her son was found alone on the rented boat.
Police said the little boy told them he and his mother went swimming in the lake and he got back in the boat but she did not.
Another boater found her son on the north end of the lake asleep on the boat and wearing a life vest.
Authorities have been using helicopters, drones, divers and all terrain vehicles in the search for her.

Were going on the belief that she did go in the water and we have not been able to locate her, Sheriffs Captain Eric Buschow said at a news conference.
So this may well be a case of drowning.

Riveras identification was found on the boat and her vehicle was found in a parking area, authorities said.

In CCTV released by Ventura County Sheriffs Department on Friday, Rivera can be seen arriving at the dock in her black SUV, boarding the boat with her son and sailing away.
The jetski appears in the video, travelling in the opposite direction to Rivera on the lake.
A petition calling for the jet ski rider to be interviewed by police has received almost 9,000 signatures.
If anyone knows what happened to her it was most likely the people on the jet ski, the Change.org petition says.
Police also released audio of the 911 call made after the little boy was found.
The recovery operation for Riveras body continues.
