RedactedNarrative: On 07/31/18 around 1920 hours I, Officer First Class, responded to Under the Bridge Watersports for a report of a Boat Accident with injuries. Two Personal Watercraft (pwc) with one person aboard each were involved in the accident and it occurred in Sinepuxent Bay. Upon arrival I observed a group of rental personal watercraft entering the docking area at Under the bridge Watersports with an injured person. One of the Personal Watercraft involved was able to be operated to Under the Bridge Watersports and the other was submerged in Sinepuxent Bay.
  I spoke with the injured person involved in the accident who was operator1. She had a laceration to her right elbow and injury to her groin. EMS responded to the scene and transported Operator1 to Atlantic General Hospital. Operator1 stated she was sitting in the middle of the bay about to talk to her boyfriend and her cousin came full speed at her and hit the side of her pwc. The pwc she operated had registration MD 7589 DA and became submerged after the accident.
  I spoke with who operator2 operated the other pwc involved in the accident with registration MD 3952 DB. Operator2 stated he was operating the pwc and talking to Operator1's boyfriend when she headed towards him at a high rate of speed. Operator2 then stated he attempted to turn away and Operator1 turned in the same direction resulting a head on collision.
  I spoke with the guide of the Personal Watercraft group. He witnessed the accident and stated Operator2 was headed south at a high rate of speed (40mph) towards Operator1. Operator1 was headed towards Operator2 at a slower speed (25mph). Both operators attempted to veer away from each other and collided.
  After reviewing the damage that occurred to both pwc's it is clear Operator2 made the initial contact with Operator1's pwc and caused the majority of damage. Speaking with everyone involved I determined Operator2 to be the at fault operator. The speed of Operator2's pwc was of an excessive rate with the close proximity to Operator1.
  Charges are pending being issued for Operator2 for negligent operation and for operating a pwc over 6 knots within 100' of another vessel.
  All event occurred in Worcester County, MD
