RedactedNarrative: On 5/19/2023, I responded to a hit and run incident on Smith Mountain Lake. The complainant (Operator 1) stated he was traveling near marker G1 and was returning to Gills Creek Marina. Boat 1 saw Boat 2 which appeared to be traveling towards the right of their vessel. Boat 2 made a sharp right turn in front of Boat 1 and struck the port side of Boat 1's bow. The collision knocked the two occupants in Boat 1 into the water, which activated both life jackets. When the Operator of Boat 1 was ejected from the vessel, the vessels kill switch was activated, stopping the vessel. Both occupants were able to get back into Boat 1, while Boat 2 left the scene. No injuries occurred on Boat 1.
