ON 7/24/11 AT APPROX 1325HRS I WAS AT CANYON LAKE AID STATION WHEN 4 SUBJECTS CAME TO THE FRONT DOOR KNOCKING. WHEN I ANSWERED ONE ASKED IF SHE COULD GET MY OPINION ON A SUBJECT. THE FEMALE ASKED IF HER HEAD WOULD NEED STITCHES. I ISPECTED THE HEAD WOUND, SHE HAD A FULL THICKNESS LACERATION ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF HER HEAD. I HAD A PARAMEDIC RESPOND TO THE AID STATION TO ASSIST WITH TREATMENT. I ASKED HER WHAT HAPPENED AND SHE SAID SHE AND HER 3 FRIENDS WERE ON AN INFLTABLE TUBE BEHIND A FRIENDS BOAT WHEN THE BOAT MADE A LEFT TURN WHICH CAUSED THE TUBE TO SPEED UP INTO THE TURN AND BECAUSE OF THE CHOPPY CONDITIONS CAUSED THE TUBE TO FLIP OVER PLACING ALL 4 SUBJECTS INTO THE WATER. victim SAID SHE HIT HER HEAD ON SOMETHING. SHE DID NOT LOSE CONSIOUESNESS. I ASKED THE OTHER 3 OCCUPANTS IF THEY WERE INJURIED AND THEY SAID NO. PARAMEDIC ARRIVED AND STARTED TREATMENT ON victim . I THEN SPOKE TO THE BOAT OPERATOR. HE SAID HE WAS IN THE MAIN BAYNEXT TO MORMON FLAT DAM AND WAS TOWING AN INFLATABLE TUBE. HE SAID HE MADE A TURN TO THE LEFT WHICH CAUSED THE TUBE TO FLIP DEPOSITING ALL 4 YOUTHS INTO THE WATER. THE OTHER SUBJECT IN THE BOAT AT THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT STATED THE SAME STORY. IT APPEARS THE CONDITION OF THE LAKE IN THAT AREA TOWING A TUBE CONTRIBUTED TO THE ACCIDENT. victim LACERATION WAS COVERED AND subjects TRANSPORTED HER BY POV FOR FURTHER TREATMENT.
