RedactedNarrative: On April 30, 2019 at 2014 hours, Sgt. was notified by GSP Grovetown of a missing boater on Lake Oconee.  Sgt. made contact with Subject1 and see advised him that a Victim had left his parents residence on a jet ski at approximately 1700 hours and had not returned yet.  Subject1 advised that neighbors had been out looking for him with no success and that his cell phone was going straight to voicemail.  Subject1 advised that Victim was on a blue/white Yamaha wave runner. 
  
  	Cpl. arrived on scene at 2119 hours and Sgt. arrived shortly thereafter.  GWFC1 went to our boathouse and brought our patrol boat to the scene.  Sgt. requested GSP Aviation at 2104 hours for their assistance.  Once on scene, Game Wardens made contact with Victim’s parents to gather further information.  Game Wardens attempted to ping Victim’s cell phone through Verizon and the last known ping measured out from the residence in the lake.  GSP Aviation arrived on scene at 2249 hours.  Captain responded after being notified and arrived on scene.  GSP Aviation flew until approximately 0145 hours next date with no success.
  
  GWFC1 located the missing PWC at approximately 0300 hours just north of the residence.  Evidence suggested that Victim was most likely missing and was in the water.  Officers notified family that they had found the missing PWC but, not their son.  Plans were then made to start water searches in the morning.  Cpl. was left on scene with the PWC.  GWFC1 was released from the scene.  
  
  The body of Victim was recovered at approximately 1157 hours by the Old Salem Fire Department Dive Team.  Coordinates for the body location was N33 27.628/W083 15.659.
  
  	Notification to the family was made.  The PWC was transported back to the residence’s dock were it was examined for evidence.  There was no damage to the vessel.  The kill switch was not in the vessel and it was found still attached to the victim’s arm.  Sgt. further examined the vessel and it crank and ran properly.  
  
  	Evidence of this accident suggest that Victim left his parents residence just before 1700 hours on the family’s PWC.  Evidence suggest that Victim traveled north on the lake and that while the PWC was in motion fell off the PWC.  The kill switch still being attached to Victim arm is indicative of this.  It is unknown what took place once Victim was in the water.   The operator had been drinking.  He had a .226 and evidence of cannabinoids.
