The woman who died yesterday after going overboard the Oakland-Alameda Ferry has been identified as 28-year-old Shayla Hudson, and authorities are still determining whether she fell or jumped.

Hudson had boarded the 8:10 a.m. San Francisco-bound ferry at Jack London Square in Oakland but instead of getting off in San Francisco, she had stayed on the return trip to Oakland. The crew notified the Coast Guard at 9:17 a.m. when the boat was docked in Oakland and Hudson was unaccounted for. Her body was spotted by the Coast Guard helicopter at 9:56 a.m. She was then picked up by boat but couldn't be revived. Hudson was later pronounced dead on arrival at Pier 39.

The water was reportedly calm during the incident, and the ferry was operating under normal conditions. The railings are several feet high on the ferry, and Ernest Sanchez, ferry manager for the city of Alameda, said it would be unlikely for someone to fall from the deck.
