RedactedNarrative: SYNOPSIS: Wake boarder suffered a possible femur fracture to his leg while being towed. 
  
  
  NARRATIVE:
  
  On July 24th, 2023 at approximately 15:45 I received a call from a park employee that a boat just came into the north marina boat ramp that a had a passenger with a possible broken leg. I informed dispatched to get medical rolling to the north marina boat ramp for the broken leg. When I arrived a volunteer was helping the boat owner walk the boat up the dock and helped secure it to the dock. The injured passenger was laying on the back seat of the boat and looked like he was losing the color in his face and his left leg in the thigh area looked slightly deformed. I notified dispatch of the possible femur injury. 
  
  Ranger arrived and brought oxygen down the dock to me. I then turned on the oxygen and attached the mask and gave VICTIM 8 lpm of oxygen till medical arrived. Ranger soon arrived and started taking information for the vessel safety inspection and helping with the boat. 
  
  Once medical arrived we decided to load the boat up onto the trailer while the patient was still in the boat and then pull the boat on trailer up the ramp then transfer VICTIM onto a stretcher. Once on the trailer and up the ramp medical administered medication to VICTIM for the pain. VICTIM stated he never lost consciousness. They then unattached the back seat VICTIM was laying on and used it as a back board to transfer him safely out of the boat and to the stretcher. 
  
  I talked to the boat owner and the operator and she stated VICTIM is new to wakeboarding and when the injury occurred she was operating and he was in tow. He was trying to get up on the wakeboard while OPERATOR began to tow. OPERATOR said she was going less than 10 mph to help VICTIM get to standing position but VICTIM got up for a sec and fell forward then stated he was injured. OPERATOR stated they had been on the water since just after 12pm.  
  
   There was an empty beer can in the back passenger area and some unopened beer. VICTIM stated he had 3-4 beers while being on the water. The other passenger stated he had 2 beers while on the water. OPERATOR stated she had nothing to drink. She did not show any signs or indicators of alcohol impairment. I watched her eyes and saw no nystagmus or redness. I also did not smell any odor of alcoholic beverage on her breath or persons. 
  
  Subject completed the vessel safety inspection and found no violations. 
  
  VICTIM was taken by ambulance to Ogden Regional hospital and OPERATOR left in her vehicle to meet him there.
