  INITIAL CALL:
  On July 21,  2016 at approximately 2100 hours I was notified by dispatch a vessel accident occurred in the San Juan arm of Lake Powell. The victim had self transported to Antelope Point Marina by houseboat and were in route to the hospital. I drove to the hospital and interviewed the operator and victim in the emergency room. The husband of the victim informed me he struck his wife's personal watercraft with his personal watercraft. The following day I inspected the watercrafts and found no damage.
  
  INCIDENT: 
  OPERATOR1 told me at approximately 1230 hours he was operating a personal watercraft in a group with his wife and a friend.  OPERATOR1's wife was operating a personal watercraft and his friend was operating a ski boat. The group came to a large debris field and the ski boat traveled through the debris first in order to clear a path for the personal watercrafts. 
  
  His wife, operator2, followed the boat and operator1 was bringing up the rear. OPERATOR2 stopped and operator1 struck her personal watercraft. OPERATOR2 was struck in the back of the head by the personal watercraft and her face struck the steering console of her personal watercraft. 
  
  OPERATOR1 estimates he was traveling about 5 miles per hour. OPERATOR1 said he must have not been paying attention and did not notice his wife stop. OPERATOR2 was transported to Antelope Point Marina by houseboat. They notified dispatch through marine band radio frequency 16 they had an injured person onboard and requested an ambulance to the hospital. 
  
  OPERATOR2  was transported to Banner Health Hospital in Page, AZ by National Park Service Rangers at approximately 2130 hours. She was evaluated for neck and spine damage and was released later that night. OPERATOR2 sustained minor injuries, a 2 inch cut on behind her right ear and a split lip. 
  
  CONCLUSION:
  On July 21, 2016 I was notified of a personal watercraft versus personal watercraft accident in the San Juan arm and the victim and other operator were in route to the hospital. I interviewed the involved parties and inspected the personal watercrafts for damage. The victim sustained minor injuries and there was no damage to the vessels.
