RedactedNarrative: On 03/17/13 my dispatch gave me a call that came from the Blount County 911 Center. The call was that there was an overturned canoe at Harrison Branch boat ramp off of US Hwy 129.  Upon my arrival I learned that there had been three people in the canoe and that one swam to shore safely.  One individual had been transported to the hospital by ambulance, he was treated and released.  I also learned that one occupant was missing/underwater.  The missing person was located a few minutes after midnight.  The following day I learned that there had been another person onboard the canoe.  He had swam to shore safely and left the scene.  Based on evidence at the scene and statements from occupants and witnesses there were no PFD''s onboard the canoe.
    Facts of the case were presented to the district attorney of Blount County.  Three people were charged with interfering with a TWRA employee.  A fourth was charged with interfering with a TWRA employee and unauthorized use of a vehicle/joyriding.  All four individuals are scheduled to appear in court on July 26, 2013 in Blount County.
