RedactedNarrative: On June 19, 2023, I, State Game Warden  found out through social media that there was a boat capsized on June 18, 2023, at approximately 4:55 pm, at Lake Sweetwater in Nolan County. I contacted Nolan County Sheriffs dispatch about the incident. 
  
  The information I received from dispatch and the deputy on scene was that there were six individuals in a vessel, that took on water and capsized. There were no injuries associated with the incident.
  
  I called the owner of the vessel and identified him. I went to his house. Once at his house, he met me outside and took me over to observe the boat. The boat was heavily damaged from the capsize and from being dragged on to the shoreline. I asked him to explain what happen on the 18th. HE stated, there were six of them on the vessel. There were three juveniles and three adults. The three juveniles and one adult female were wearing personal flotation devices. He stated, he was operating the vessel and they left the boat ramp to take a cruise. At some point he was having trouble with the trim not working properly. He noticed that there was water coming from under his feet. The boat quit on him. He stated that more and more water was coming in the vessel. All sudden the vessel started to capsize towards the Starboard side. Everyone ended up in the water. He stated his wife was trapped briefly under the capsized vessel. He was able to pull her from underneath the vessel. There were no injuries associated with the incident. He said he did not know what caused the incident and when he observed the vessel, he could not see any visual signs of damage from underneath vessel that would have caused the water to come into vessel. He said that the plug was in place.
   
  I received the information from the three adults but the juveniles I was not able to retrieve. The father of the children did not want to release their information.
