On 7/22/12 at about 1750hrs i responded to a call of a boating accident with injury east of the 10 lane boat ramp at lake pleasant. Upon arrival i observed that a female subject had spained/strained her back while she was being towed behind a vessel. She stated that as she fell in the water her fall caused her body to twist into an unnatural position and this is when she believes that she had hurt herself. I contacted the operator of v1 and he told me the following. He stated that he was operating a vessel just east of the 10 lane ramp. He stated that he had been towing victim and her father on a inner tube. He stated he was only going about 10-15mph. He stated that they had been towed behind the boat for about an hour and victim had fallen before a few times but she was not injured in the previous falls. Peoria fire were called and meanwhile deputies on scene maintained a c spine on victim until the medics arrived. Peoria br 199 c shift arrived on scene and treated victim. She was transported to north peoria emergency room via ground ambulance.
