RedactedNarrative: On Friday, August 9, 2019 at 1918 hours, I Officer responded to the University of Maryland Shore Medical Center at Chestertown at 100 Brown Street, Chestertown, Maryland in reference to a reported boat accident with personal injury. Upon my arrival I made contact with the injured subject, who was escorted by Echo Hill Outdoor School staff.
  
       Victim advised that earlier that day at approximately 1645 hours he was being towed behind a vessel on a tube, going less than 10 miles per hour. Victim stated that the vessel, a 2005 McKee Craft bearing Maryland registration 2638BW, was coming to a stop for him to get off of the tube. Victim advised that intentionally got off of the tube, and as he slid into the water, his right hand became caught in the tube handle. Victim advised that the weight of his body going into the water put pressure on his hand, causing pain. Victim was able to free his hand, but suspected his ring finger may have been injured, and requested medical treatment from camp staff, who transported him to the hospital. Victim advised that the operator of the vessel at the time was a camp counselor, but the injury was in no way caused by her action. Victim was calm as I spoke with him, and did not seemed overly distressed by pain. Victim was admitted into the hospital for treatment.
  
       I later contacted Echo Hill Outdoor School and obtained further information about the vessel and operator. I was also advised that Victim was diagnosed with a fractured finger, but was otherwise okay. I later responded to Echo Hill and met with  the operator of the vessel, who confirmed Victim's telling of events.
  
       All did happen in Kent County, Maryland. I request the case be closed.
