RedactedNarrative: WHILE ON ROUTINE PATROL ON 5/28/23 AT ROUGHLY 14:20 HOURS, I RECEIVED A CALL FROM MY DISPATCH THAT A PWC HAD COLLIDED WITH A STATIONARY DOCK AT WACCAMAW SHORES RD.  WHILE ENROUTE TO THE INCIDENT, I RECEIVED A CALL FROM SGT 2 OF NCWRC THAT HE AND OFFICER 3 WERE ALREADY ON SCENE.  I ARRIVED AT 15:08 HOURS.  THE FIRST PERSON I SPOKE TO WAS WITNESS AND HE TOLD ME HE HAD VIDEO EVIDENCE OF THE INCIDENT.  AFTER REVIEWING THE VIDEO, I COULD CLEARLY SEE THE PWC OPERATOR WHO WAS LATER IDENTIFIED AS OPERATOR RUN INTO THE STEP AND THE MAIN JOISTS OF THE DOCK.  OPERATOR WAS OPERATING THE PWC IN A RECKLESS MANNER BY SPINNING IT AROUND WITHIN A FEW FEET OF THE DOCK UNTIL HE LOST CONTROL OF THE PWC AFTER A SECOND ATTEMPT OF TRYING TO SPIN THE PWC AROUND.  THE PWC DROVE STRAIGHT INTO THE STEPS OF THE DOCK AND PARTIALLY UNDER THE MAIN RUN OF THE DOCK.  THE PWC HIT THE STEPS WITH ENOUGH FORCE TO DETACH THEM FROM THE MAIN JOISTS OF THE DOCK AND WHILE ALSO DAMAGING THE WOOD.  THE PWC RECEIVED DAMAGE TO THE BOW, PORT AND STARBOARD SIDES.  THE MOST DAMAGE WAS DONE TO THE STARBOARD SIDE WHERE THE FIBERGLASS OF THE PWC WAS CRACKED ROUGHLY 8-10 INCHES.
  
  AFTER INTERVIEWING BOTH PARTIES AND THE VIDEO, I, OFFICER 1, DECIDED TO CHARGE OPERATOR WITH OPERATING A VESSEL AT GREATER THAN NO-WAKE SPEED WITHIN A POSTED NO-WAKE ZONE (G.S. 75A-15) AND FOR OPERATING A MOTORBOAT OR VESSEL ON THE WATERS OF THIS STATE IN A RECKLESS OR NEGLIGENT MANNER TO ENDANGER LIFE, LIMB OR PROPERTY OF ANY PERSON (G.S. 75A-10(A).
