RedactedNarrative: While patrolling Watauga Lake, in Carter County Tennessee, I noticed a Pontoon Boat with what appeared to be young children on board who were not wearing life jackets. I stopped the the vessel, and performed a safety inspection. The operator of the vessel who informed me one of the juveniles on his vessel had just broken his finger while being pulled behind the vessel on a tube. The operator stated the juvenile fell off the tube while being pulled and his finger got caught on the handle of the tube and broke it. There were two juveniles on board the vessel who were twelve years of age. There were no charges filed against the operator for the cause of the accident.
