RedactedNarrative: On April 3rd, 2023, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, responded to a call for service at Silver Shores about a boating accident. 
  	The vessel had two occupants on board. While attempting to dock the vessel, the operator struck the fixed concrete dock, and the victim became pinned between the vessel’s railing and dock.  
  	The victim was airlifted to Jackson South Medical Center to treat his injuries. 
  Upon arrival, I met with Officer 1, who then gave me a brief synopsis of what occurred. Officer 1 stated that there were two occupants on the vessel. They had picked up the vessel from the mechanic earlier that morning. They noticed the throttle had been reversed when they put it in the water, meaning that forward was reverse, and reverse was forward. The occupants used the vessel for approximately 30-45 minutes. Upon returning to the dock, they attempted to put the vessel in reverse by pushing the throttle forward as they had been doing all day. The operator stated that the vessel slowed for a second and then lunged forward, which is when the victim became pinned between the concrete dock and the metal railing on the vessel. Officer 1 also told me the victim had been transported by EMS and would be airlifted via Trauma Star to Jackson South Medical Center in Miami. ; The victim's extent of injuries were:  - A total of four broken ribs  	- Three on the left side 	- One on the right side  - The victim suffered a Pneumothorax. Which is a collection of air outside the lung but within the pleural cavity.
