El Reno police said the investigation into an incident at Lake El Reno that claimed the life of a 30-year-old man is continuing. 

Police did not release any new information about the Sept. 12 collision that resulted in the death of Landon Lerch. 

Police had earlier said the scooter Lerch was driving collided with a vehicle driven by a 15-year-old El Reno girl. Police did not release the name of the girl since she is a minor. 

Family members of Lerch also disputed the initial police report that said the scooter was not equipped with lights.
