RedactedNarrative: On June 11, 2023, around 4:45 PM, on Chocolate Bayou, (Operator) was operating a boat that belonged to (Passenger).  Neither  was wearing a lifejacket while the vessel was underway, but there were a sufficient number of personal floatation devices (PFDs) on the boat.  Being pulled behind the boat on a tube was (Injured) who was wearing a lifejacket during the accident.  Operator stated that he was not used to the boat and was not aware of how quickly the boat turned.  As Operator was turning left into one of the bends on the Bayou, the boat swung into a stump/ tree that was partially submerged in the water near the bank. Operator turned the boat around, put Injured into the boat, and headed back to the boat ramp as they contacted 911.  Once at the boat ramp, Operator, who is also an Alvin Police Officer and prior military, retrieved a tourniquet and placed it on Injured above the wound to try to help control the bleeding.  Operator County Sheriff's Office arrived on scene along with EMS.  Eventually, Injured was life-flighted to Houston Methodist Hospital with a large laceration to his glute and down the back of his leg.  I, Texas Game Warden, arrived on scene shortly after Injured was life-flighted.  I received statements from all witnesses involved in the accident, took down vessel information, and took pictures of the vessel and of the tube that was used.
