RedactedNarrative: On August 24, 2017, I, Cpl., of the Maryland Natural Resources Police, received a call from DNR Communications in regards to responding to Camp Tockwogh, located at 24370 Still Pond Neck Road, Worton, MD, 21678, for the report of a boat accident. DNR advised that a camper was water skiing, fell, and was being taken to University of Maryland Shore Medical Center at Chestertown, for treatment. 
  
      I responded to University of Maryland Shore Medical Center at Chestertown and met with the victim at about 1:18 PM. I also met with Victim's aunt as she was on the vessel when Victim fell and subsequently transported him to the hospital. Victim advised that he was water skiing with a slalom ski in Still Pond Creek, which I knew to be located in Kent County, Maryland. 
  
  Victim advised that they left the dock for the skiing trip at about 10:45 AM. Victim advised that the vessel was being operated in an eastbound manner, in Still Pond Creek. He advised that while he was being towed during the afternoon hours, he successfully cut over a wake, and was in the process of cutting over another wake when he fell head first into the water. Victim advised that his slalom ski struck him in the back of the head while he fell in the water. Victim advised that he continued to ski for a short amount of time and then got back into the Camp Tockwogh vessel. Subject advised that she was sitting in the bow of the vessel at the time of the accident. The vessel, which is owned by YMCA Camp Tockwogh, would later be identified as a 2013 Boston Whaler Super Sport 117 (17') bearing Maryland Registration "6712 CF".
  
      Victim and Subject advised that while Victim was seated in the vessel, someone noticed blood on the back of Victim's head. Victim was immediately taken back to Camp Tockwogh where he was examined by a registered nurse that happened to be at the camp. The registered nurse advised that Victim had a contusion on the back his head that needed to be treated at a hospital. Subject advised that she transported him to the University of Maryland Shore Medical Center at Chestertown and arrived at 1:00 PM. Subject later contacted me and advised that Victim received 5 staples and 2 stitches on the back of his head, as he had not been seen by hospital staff when I cleared from the hospital. 
  
       I responded to YMCA Camp Tockwogh and met with camp staff.  I spoke with operator as he was the vessel operator at the time of the accident. operator provided the same information and story that Victim and Subject provided. I also obtained the vessel information from Camp Tockwogh Staff. 
  
      I cleared from this incident at about 1405. This case is closed. All events occurred in Kent County, MD.
