ON 7/18/11 AT APPROX 2004HRS, I RESPONDED FOR A REPORT OF SEVERAL PEOPLE WHO HAD FALLEN OUT OF A CANOE AT FRANCES SHORT POND. INITIAL REPORTS INDICATED THAT ONE CHILD WAS OUTSTANDING, HOWEVER, UPON MY ARRIVAL I LEARNED THAT ALL OCCUPANTS WERE OUT OF THE WATER. 3 CHILDREN AND ONE ADULT APPEARED UNINJURED. THE OTHER CHILD WAS ALERT BUT WAS TRANSPORTED TO FLAGSTAFF MEDICAL CENTER. THE ADULT STATED NO ONE IN THE CANOE WAS WEARING A LIFE PRESERVER AND I OBSERVED 5 LIFE PRESERVERS ON THE SHORE OF THE POND. operator STATED HE WAS NOT SURE HOW THE CANOE OVERTURNED. HE SAID THAT ONE OF THE CHILDREN WAS EXCITED BECAUSE HE CAUGHT A LARGE CRAWDAD AND WHEN HE BEGAN PADDLING THE CANOE OVERTURNED. THE CANOE WAS NOT OF SUFFICIENT SIZE TO HOLD ONE ADULT AND 4 CHILDREN.
