RedactedNarrative: On August 3, 2018 at approximately 9:00pm, Vessel 1 (V1) left Ellie Ray's bar on the Santa Fe river heading down stream toward where they had launched at the town of Suwannee. V1 was operated  with one passenger.  According to Operator's statements, Occupant stood up in the boat to urinate as V1 was idling down the Suwannee River. Operator said Occupant fell overboard into the water and could not be located. Witnesses at a nearby residence on the river heard Operator yelling, shined a flashlight on him and called him over. Operator drove V1 to the witnesses dock. The witnesses then called 911. Multiple agencies responded to the scene to try and locate Occupant. As of the time of this report, Occupant has not been located.
  
   Base on the operator and witness statement(s) the decedent appeared to have been under the influence of alcoholic beverage and there was some concern(s) about his eroding sense of balance and lack of bodily coordination which included his inability to articulate words.  It is also unknown if there may have been trip hazard(s) such as a “fishing tackle box” in the boat or lying on the “port” side of the deck that may have cause him to lose his balance and fall overboard.  It is unknown if the victim’s pre-existing medical condition, in reference to the decedent suffering a C6 spinal fracture, a cervical spine ligamentous injury and diffuse axonal injury that happen on 12/20/2017 when he was thrown from a Motor Boat at a high rate of speed, may have also been a contributing factor in reference to falling overboard and drowning.  It is also unknown if the victim was ejected from the boat.
