Checking boats at Cottonwood Point noticed people on boat ramp waving and requesting help with an injured male holding his left side.  Checked injured individual - white male 27 - - was complaining of sore ribs and left side and was having difficulty breathing.  Called 911 and requested medical aid and transportation to hospital.  

Gathered info from PWC operator that was pulling the tube, and info from other vessel involved that was anchored.  Injury was caused from the tube being pulled into the side of anchored vessel that was the starting point and finishing point of tube rides.  All people involved were friends out boating and tubing together.  Found small amount of alcohol on board anchored vessel.
