RedactedNarrative: V1 struck a side piling of a residence in the ICW
  On May 9, 2023 at @ 1830 hours, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission was on vehicle patrol in the City of Hollywood. I received a call from dispatch advising me of a Boating Accident that had occurred. The location of the boating accident was in the ICW just north of the Commercial Blvd bridge.
  Dispatch advised that it was a single vessel, single person involvement. The operator was injured and transported to Broward General Hospital. Fort Lauderdale Police Department (FLPD) was on scene. I advised dispatch that I would be en route to the Hospital and asked if FLPD would remain on scene with the vessel until I was able to and if possible interview the operator. 
  Upon my arrival at Broward General, I briefly met with the doctor that was on her way to the emergency room to proceed with surgery. I asked what were the extent of the injury. The operator received to include facial fractures, and an epidural brain bleed. 
  The operator was identified as OP1. I was unable to speak to OP1 at the time he was admitted to the Hospital. Once I completed gathering all information, I was en route to the scene of the accident.
  Once at the scene, I met with FLPD marine officer. I asked what had happened. They advised that they received a 911 call of a vessel hitting the side piling of the residence. The vessel was on scene with extent damages to it's front bow. (See Photos).
  There were no witness that saw the accident but the owner of the residence said that she heard a loud bang and payed it no mind. She then went outside to her dock and noticed the vessel and operator that struck the piling. She called 911. Fort Lauderdale Fire Rescue arrived and transported OP1 to the Hospital. ; OP1 received injury's to his head and were to include facial fractures, and an epidural brain bleed.
