Cpl. informed me two vessels were involved and the incident resulted in one fatality.  there was no indication of drug or alcohol use.   

Operator1 was the operator of vessel A, a 1989 Ranger HIN # RNG1L186J889.  Operator1 said he saw Operator2, driver of vessel B, a 1999 Stratos HIN # OMLS1253C999, coming out from a point, near the Due Duck Inn, but in his direction and at a distance of ¼ mile.   Operator1 said “I turned right, he turned left, I turned left, he turned right”.  Operator1 said he was running around 2800 RPMS when he first saw Operator2.  Operator1 said he had not been drinking but does take a seizure medication named Lamictal. Operator1 consented to a blood test.  
At approximately 0020 hours, I interviewed the driver of vessel B, Operator2.   Operator2 said he was coming around the point but off of it by 100 yards. Operator2 said Operator1 approached him on the outside at first but then moved toward the inside.  Operator2 explained the inside as the area between his boat and the bank. Operator2 said, “so I shifted to go to the outside, he shifted in opposite direction so I shifted in the opposite direction”.  Operator2 said the incident happened at least 150 yards from the dock at 165 Sky Rd. (Due Duck Inn).  Operator2 consented to a blood test.  I transported Operator2 to Sylvan Grove Hospital in Jackson for testing.  We arrived at the hospital at approximately 0100 hours and I read Operator2 implied consent.  
At approximately 0400 hours, both Vessel A and B were secured at the Butts County Sheriff’s Office impound lot.
On May 23, 2013, at 1130 hours, I attended the autopsy of passenger of Vessel A.  Medical Examiner, said Victim suffered from trauma to the left chest area.  (See autopsy report)
