RedactedNarrative: On 05/28/2023 I Game Warden and assistant were patrolling the San Jacinto River and had another vessel notify me at about 7:25Pm that a pwc had crashed into the bank at extreme by the boat ramp.  We responded to the scene and found that EMS had already made scene and were tending to the injured.  Ems was dispatched at 7:38 PM and advised me that the female passenger had broken her lower left arm.  The operator was identified, and he had some minor injuries and a possible broken hand.  
  
  Due to a language barrier, we had an individual that works at the park translate and the operator said that he had thought that he saw someone in the water and swerved to avoid hitting them and ran into the bank.  As we were talking to the operator Game Warden detected alcohol on the operator’s breath and conducted SFSTs and had enough clues to arrest the operator.  The operator was then transported by ambulance to LBJ Hospital, and a Consent blood specimen was taken along with a warrant for the blood per Harris County policy.  The blood was drawn at over 4 hours from the accident so  we also obtained a warrant for the Hospital’s residual blood but were advised that they did not take any blood from the operator.  The Vessel was a PWC and had already been trailered so I looked it over and documented the visible damage that it had.  The owner of the vessel was not onsite, but another said that it was her husbands PWC and that she and her daughter had it out for the day. They let her 16yr old daughter make a statement due to a language barrier.  The daughter stated that the operator was begging them to use the PWC. They told him no until he gave the $100 for an hour to use it.  She stated that he drove off with his wife and was speeding; he just drove straight and crashed into the rocks and the wife flew off.  We could not find any other witnesses that would talk to us due to the time that had passed and the language barrier in the area.  Any alcohol related charges are pending the results of the blood draw.
