RedactedNarrative: On August 11, 2013 around 1641 hours, Passenger 2 was the passenger on board a PWC owned by the Operator.  They launched the vessel  at Emerald Necklace Marina in Rocky River, Ohio along with another friend, Witness 1, who was on a separate PWC not involved in the incident.  The gentlemen took the PWC on Lake Erie with the intent to go wakeboarding.  In preparation to begin towing, they had to untangle the ski rope, which was badly knotted.  At some point in the untangling process, the ski rope got sucked into the intake on the bottom of the PWC.  As a result, Passenger 2, who still had a hold of the rope, was pulled into the lake and suffered injuries that required treatment beyond first-aid.  The gentlemen came into Edgewater Launch ramp, where I spoke to the victim.  The others headed back to Rocky River on the other PWC, so that they could retrieve the car and take the victim to the hospital.  The victim was treated and released from Lutheran Hospital for a fractured thumb.
