RedactedNarrative: SUMMARY:
  On September 9, 2023, at approximately 1039 hours within the jurisdiction of Lake Mead National Recreation Area, Lake Mead Interagency Communications Center (LMICC) received a report of a wake boarding accident in the Overton Arm near Echo Bay launch ramp.  Rangers arrived on scene and helped stabilize the patient who was lying down on his back on the rear of the vessel until Moapa Valley EMS arrived on scene.  Moapa EMS requested Mercy Air to fly out the patient to University Medical Center to be evaluated for a hip injury.
  
  ASSIGNMENT:
  I was dispatched to Echo Bay launch ramp by LMICC at approximately 1039 hours on a report if a wake boarding accident.
  
  NARRATIVE:
  LMICC informed rangers that a male with a broken leg was on a vessel located in the Overton Arm and currently heading into the Echo Bay Launch Ramp dock.
  
  ACTION TAKEN:
  I arrived on scene at Echo Bay launch ramp with Ofc. 2 at approximately 1107 hours.
  
  I observed a vessel coming in towards the launch ramp and persons on board confirmed they had the patient.
  
  The patient was identified as Injured by state drivers license handed to me by his son. His son identified himself as the operator of the vessel at the time with the wakeboard accident by name and date of birth as Operator.
  
  Moapa Valley EMS arrived on scene around 1120 hours and requested Mercy Air.  I ran communications from my patrol car ashandheld radios were not working at this location.
  
  While waiting for Mercy Air, I identified the vessel as a 2007 Malibu Wakesetter.
  
  Mercy Air landed at Echo Bay launch ramp at approximately 1158 hours and departed with the patient to University Medical Center at approximately 1221 hours. 
  
  I learned from all persons on board the vessel that Injured had been attempting to do a flip on the wakeboard and when he landed, the wakeboard and his body both pulled in opposing directions causing his injury (not all witness information collected due to Rangers providing EMS and communications with Mercy Air for Moapa Valley EMS).
