RedactedNarrative: On June 19, 2011 at approximately 4:45am, I was contacted by Sgt. and asked to respond to a fatal boat accident on the Fox River.  At 5:08am, I arrived on scene and was notified by other responding agencies that the victim was found deceased floating in the Fox River in approximately 2 1/2 feet of water, at the accident site.
  
  Preliminary investigation shows that Victim was traveling approximately due south (180 degrees) on the Fox River when he struck a pier which caused his boat to go airborne and land upside down on another pier 25 feet to the south.  The pier was 52'' 4" in length, and faced in a 302 degree angle.  The pier which Victim's boat laid rest on was also 52'' 4" in length.  The boat laid at rest facing 302 degrees.  Victim was found by the Algonquin Fire department floating deceased, face down, approximately 10'' from the impacted pier.  The body was removed and laid on shore, pending removal from the McHenry County Coroner''s office.
  
  The scene was secured by the Illinois Conservation Police.  The Algonquin Police Department and McHenry County Sheriff''s Department made notification to the victim''s family, and assisted in gathering information if any other person was with Victim when the accident occurred.  At the time, it was believed Victim was alone.
  
  The McHenry County Coroner''s office arrived and took custody of the body.
  
  a tow agency was requested to assist in the recovery of the boat.  The boat was removed from the pier, and all evidence was preserved.  The boat was taken to Erickson Marine in Algonquin.  Victim''s boat was secured on his trailer.  CPO took custody of the boat and secured it at Moraine Hills State Park storage facility.
  
  CPO was notified by Sgt. of the accident and was requested to inventory the boat''s contents, photograph, and reconstruct the accident.  His supplemental report is attached to this report.
  
  A more detailed narrative of the report is attached as a supplement.
