RedactedNarrative: On 6-23-2013, Sabine Parish Sheriff's Dept. contacted me (Sgt.) about a boating incident that occurred on Toledo Lake near Army Rec. Cove. Upon arrival, I found that a passenger (Victim) fell from the front deck, where he was standing outside of the railing while under way, of a rented U.S. Army 18ft. Sun Tracker pontoon boat (see attached photograph log). Falling between the pontoons, the vessel traveled over him where the engine propeller struck him on the right side causing multiple lacerations to his torso and leg (see attached photograph log). The operator at the time of the incident was able to put the vessel in neutral when he saw Victim fall overboard. The other passenger, threw one of the five (5) PFD's to Victim after he came out from under the vessel. They helped Victim into the vessel, administering first aid and calling 911 for assistance to meet them at the U.S. Army recreation facility. They were met by first responders and Med Express to administer aid to Victim. Med Express transported Victim to Byrd Regional Hospital in Leesville, Passenger rode with them for any other assistance they might need. I transported Operator to Pirates Cove, where his vehicle was located, so that he could get his driver's license for me and give me a voluntary written statement of the incident. There was no indication of alcohol or drug use by Operator, he was issued a citation for Improperly Riding on the Deck because of Victim's location at the time of the incident. Sr. Agents met with Passenger and Victim at Byrd Hospital, where Passenger gave them a voluntary written statement and driver's license and contact information for them both. Due to the medication given to Victim, he was unable to give a written statement at that time. He was later transferred to Rapides General Hospital for further treatment due to the extent of his injuries. 
  On 6-26-2013, Lt. and I were able to make contact with Victim at Ft. Polk to get a written statement from him about the incident. He confirmed that he was riding on the front deck,  outside of the railing while under way, when the incident occurred. All voluntary written statements are attached with this report.
