RedactedNarrative: On September 30th 2023, I Texas Game Warden, received a phone call from the Brazoria County Sheriffs Office Dispatch regarding a boat accident on Hall's Bayou. The call was in reference to 2 vessel accident with injuries.
  
  I arrived on scene at approximately 12:48 PM.  When I arrived on scene I saw a boat at halls bayou boat ramp, still in the water, with an individual laying in the boat.  Fire and EMS were on scene trying performing CPR on Owner/Operator/Deceased of Boat2.  OPERATOR2 was later put in the ambulance and taken to the hospital.  
  
  I found one of the boys who was involved in the accident, standing next to his dad. I stated who I was, and asked him for his ID and he then proceeded to tell me what transpired.  SUBJECT1 told me both boats came around a curve and collided. SUBJECT1 stated they all flew out of the boat. He saw a man (OPERATOR2) bleeding in the water, put him in the boat and started doing CPR on him.
  
  
  I walked over to subject2 asked him for an ID and stated who I was and why I was there.  I asked SUBJECT2 to tell me what happened.  SUBJECT2 stated they got to a curve, and he saw a boat and pointed at it.  Stated OPERATOR2 took a hard right turn and right before the other boat made impact with them, SUBJECT2 jumped out of the boat.  SUBJECT2 stated he saw OPERATOR2 belly up in the water and swam over to him and put him back into OPERATOR2's boat.  They tied a rope to the 4 boy's boat and tried to tow OPERATOR2's boat in with the body in it.  SUBJECT2 stated he tried to give OPERATOR2 CPR.  I asked SUBJECT2 if he would write a statement and he agreed to do so.
  
  I walked over to subject3.  I asked SUBJECT3 who was driving and he told me operator1.  I asked SUBJECT3 if he would write a statement for me and provide me identification.  He text me his driver's license because he did not have his physical ID on him.  I asked SUBJECT3 to tell me what happened. SUBJECT3 stated they were coming back in from fishing.  He said he was on his phone and then he looked up and both boats collided.  He jumped out of the boat, into the water, and when he surfaced he saw OPERATOR2 floating.  I asked SUBJECT3 if there was any alcohol in the boat and he said no.  I asked SUBJECT3 to sit inside my truck so we can draw a diagram of where everybody was sitting on the boat that he was on.  He did so.  I then asked him to draw a diagram of the bayou and which way the boats were traveling and how they collided with one another.  He did so. I then left SUBJECT3 in my truck so he could complete a statement.
  
  I then found the one operating the vessel at the time of the accident.  I stated who I was and asked him to explain to me what happened.  OPERATOR1 stated they got to the boat ramp around 8-8:15AM.  They went out fishing in Halls and Chocolate Bayou.  They were coming back in from fishing and headed back to the boat ramp and when they got into the bend of the bayou he saw the boat and stated he turned right and the other boat turned right but then later stated the they both turned in to each other.  OPERATOR1 stated once they hit the boat, he blacked out, then gained consciousness.  They lifted OPERATOR2 out of the water and put OPERATOR2 back on OPERATOR2's boat.  They tied a rope on OPERATOR2's boat and started towing OPERATOR2's boat back to the boat ramp. I asked  OPERATOR1 who was driving the other boat and he stated OPERATOR2 was the one driving the other boat.  I asked OPERATOR1 if he was wearing a kill switch, and he said no.
  
  At approximately 2:30PM, Game Wardens launched our boat on Hall's Bayou.  SUBJECT2 agreed to go with us so he could show us where OPERATOR2's boat was and the whereabouts of the boat accident.  We found OPERATOR2's boat in the bayou with the motor knocked off into the water.  Pictures were taken.  We tried to put the motor back in the boat but it was too heavy for us to place back inside the boat. 
  
  We tied OPERATOR2's boat up next to our boat and tried to tow it in.  OPERATOR2's son approached us in his boat and we had him pull the boat back to the boat ramp so we could proceed to the location where the accident took place.  We approached the bend in the bayou where the accident took place.  Cat tails along the bank were knocked over where the boats had driven into them.  I also saw one of the boy's crocs (shoe) where the cat tails had folded over from the boat(s) running into them.  GPS coordinates and pictures were taken of where we believed the accident took place.
  
  Both vessels involved in the accident were taken to the Brazoria County Sheriffs Office.
  
  On 10/07/2023, I traveled to OPERATOR1 home address to question OPERATOR1 about the boat accident.  OPERATOR1 parents were present during the questioning. OPERATOR1 told me what be believed happened on Hall's Bayou on the day of the accident and also drew a diagram of what he believed happened.
