RedactedNarrative: On October 30th, 2022, at around 12:15 A.M., I, Officer First Class 1, of the Maryland Natural Resources Police, responded to a boat accident on Nabbs Creek in Anne Arundel County. The call was given to our communications center by Anne Arundel County Police Department and occurred at around 11:40 P.M. Upon arriving at Nabbs Creek Marina (864 Nabbs Creek Rd, Glen Burnie, Maryland 21060), I was met by the witnesses. They both stated that they heard a boat coming into the marina hit a docked vessel as they went to drop someone off on land. The witnesses were able to get identification from the operator and vessel information. The operator was identified as V2 Operator and the vessel registration was MD on a 2000 25-foot Concepts Boat Inc center console boat. The vessel that was struck was a 2004 30-foot Rinker 270 bearing Maryland registration. The damage to the vessel was multiple scrapes down the port side of the vessel and large cracks below the rub rail on the port side. The owner of the vessel was not present at the time of the accident due to them being out of the country. 
          
          The striking vessel had exchanged information and left the marina before Anne Arundel County Police Department arrived on the scene. The only damage to the striking vessel was the bow navigation lights cracked. After taking pictures at the marina, I went to the address where V2 Operator resides. At around 2:00 A.M. I made contact with V2 Operator for a welfare check, he advised that he was involved in a boat accident and had exchanged information. He stated that while heading into the marina to drop off a friend, he was distracted by one of the occupants on his vessel urinating off the back of the vessel. While turning around to yell at the occupant, he struck the docked vessel. 
  
          Photos were taken of both vessels and V2 Operator admitted to hitting the docked vessel. A follow-up meeting with the striking vessel operator was conducted, and V2 Operator was charged with one citation:
  Failure to obey navigation rules - Rules of the Road (Improper lookout). V2 Operator was also issued 4 warnings:
  Reckless operation, Negligent operation, Failure to obey navigation rules - Rules of the Road (Safe speed), and Operation of a vessel in a reckless or dangerous manner.
