RedactedNarrative: On January 14, at around 12:30 P.M., I, Officer of the Maryland Natural Resources Police, along with, Corporal, received a report of a capsized canoe on Stoney Creek. The reporting party was driving over the Rt.173 bridge when they observed a canoe capsized in the creek and 3 people in the water. Corporal and I canvassed the creek aboard NRP-141; searching from Elizabeth Landing to the mouth of Stoney Creek, we were able to locate the canoe against the shoreline in Beehive Cove(N 39.156938, W -76.525719). The canoe capsized outside of Beehive Cove behind De Franceaux Harbor (N 39.157613, W -76.528082).
          We then received a second report that the occupants were at De Franceaux Harbor trying to warm up and waiting for Anne Arundel County EMS to arrive. Upon arriving at the address, I discovered that there were 5 occupants of the canoe and all were accounted for. The 11-year-old and 6-year-old were transported to Anne Arundel Medical Center (AACO Run # 202203929) and Operator followed the ambulance to the hospital with her other children. Five personal floatation devices were recovered at the scene and multiple witnesses stated that they observed all occupants wearing them while underway. Operator stated that they were out of the creek one last time as a "goodbye tour" before they moved away. They were on the water for approximately one hour. Operator stated that the children were swimming for approximately 15-20 minutes in the water. While trying to climb back into the canoe, the boat capsized and was unable to be righted.
         
           The weather conditions were as follows:
          Sunny with clear visibility (~8 Miles)
          Air Temperature: 46 degrees Fahrenheit

          Anne Arundel Medical Center's Pediatric Unit was contacted at 4:00 P.M. about the status of the two transported children who were both discharged from the hospital at around 3:45 P.M. Will be following up with Operator at a later date.
