On 6/5/10 at about 1140hrs i responded to bartlett marina in regards to a jet ski accident and the injured person was at the marina. Upon arrival deputies were out with a white male who was complaining of back pain. He stated he was jet skiing with a friend when his friend turned and ran into him. He said the other guy and both skis were at their campsite near the yellow cliffs boat dock. Upon locating the 2 skis i spoke to a white male. I asked operator1 what had happened and he told me he was operating one of the skis and operator2 the other one. Operator1 said they were heading north about 20 feet apart going about 20 miles per hour. He looked back and thought he had plenty of room to turn so he did turn and then ran into operator2 on his ski. Operator1  was cited and released for ars5-350c reckless operation. Operator2 was treated by rural metro fire then flown to the scottsdale osborne hospital by airevac four. Nothing further.
