RedactedNarrative: On August 2, 2016 at approximately 1600 hours I responded to a report of a PWC accident with injuries located off Fred Howard Park. Approximately 30 minutes later I arrived at Anclote Park Boat ramp where the victim, later identified as Injured1 was currently being treated and prepped for transport via Helicopter to Tampa General Hospital. I made contact with Witness1 who was a witness to the accident. Witness1 stated he was crusing in his vessel, FLxxxxxx and Injured1 was driving behind him in a pwc FLxxxxxx. 
  	He stated they were traveling soutbound in the ICW just west of Fred Howard Park when he heard a large bang behind him. He turned around and saw Injured1's pwc had collided with a channel marker and ejected Injured1 into the water. He helped Injured1 out of the water and onto his vessel and then called 911. It was discovered that Injured1 had collided with channel marker 37 in the ICW. The pwc sufferred a large hull fracture to the port side along with damage to the bow. Injured1 was tranported to Tampa General Hospital and treated for a cut to his left ear, minor scratches to his upper back, and water in his lungs.
  	Injured1 was visiting from Germany. His parents were still in Germany but were notified by Witness1 of the accident. Ofc.#1 responded by water and towed the pwc into Anclote Boat Ramp. The pwc was towed and put into storage at the Tampa compound where it was released to Witness1 on August 5. Pictures were not obtained of the damage to the pwc.; Injured1: Cut to left ear, with minor scratches on upper back. Minor amount of water in lungs
