RedactedNarrative: On 08-05-2023 at approximately 1159 hours I was advised about a single vessel crash involving a Personal Watercraft (PWC). Call was transferred over from LHCPD. Call notes stated a male passenger on the PWC had facial injuries and they were back at the Nautical Beach. Fire/EMS was dispatched but the subject refused medical transport before we got on scene. 
  
  Upon our arrival, the owner of the PWC, advised us that the male victim and the operator of the PWC both went to Havasu Regional Medical Center. I located the PWC (Vessel 1). There was no damage observed to the PWC. I went to the HRMC and located the subjects mother. 
  
  Mother said that her son was 15 years old. Mother said that she only knew that her son had facial injuries. I asked if I could speak to Victim because he was a minor and she said in essence, "no, he gets very nervous and scared around this" while pointing at my uniform. Mother was not very cooperative with me while at the hospital. The operator of Vessel 1 was not at the hospital, he was back at the Nautical Resort. 
  
  Deputies located the operator back at the beach. In essence Operator said they were past the Thompson Bay bouy line. They were going approximately 35 mph. They went to turn and hit a wave and were ejected from the PWC. Somehow Victim hit the left side of his face on the PWC during the crash. It was learned that Victim sustained a split chin and a broken jaw. One of the family members at the hospital provided me with a picture of Victim''s face. The photo was uploaded to Evidence.com.
