RedactedNarrative: On 7/4/2020 at approximately 7:20 PM a single vessel accident occurred on Lake Barkley near Davenport Bay resulting in a serious physical injury for one occupant on board. 
  
  The vessel involved was a 2006 Sting Ray 200LX (KY-0525-VB). It was propelled by a single 210 HP inboard/outboard engine and was 20' in length. There were 6 occupants on board and the vessel was being operated by OPERATOR 1 at the time of the accident. 
  
  Officers were dispatched to this single-vessel accident with one occupant complaining of severe pain to her neck and head as a result of the boat hitting a large wave at a high rate of speed. According to multiple occupants on board PASSENGER 1 was riding in front of the windshield on the port side of the vessel in a cushioned seat, as is common on this style of open-motorboat. 
  
  Somewhere near the main lake, they struck a large wave at a high rate of speed causing PASSENGER 1 to leave her seat vertically. One occupant described PASSENGER 1 reaching a vertical height above that of the windshield on this particular vessel. It was then described to officers by occupants that PASSENGER 1 fell onto the floor of the boat between the front seats landing on her head and neck in a violent manner. Others on board then went on to describe PASSENGER 1's head bouncing abrubtly and repeatedly on the floor until the boat could come to a stop. 
  
  After officers escorted this vessel out of the main-lake and to the courtesy dock at Hu-B's Marina in Kuttawa, Paramedics with Lyon County EMS transported the injured occupant to Western Baptist Hospital in Paducah. It was also at this time when officers learned that OPERATOR 1 was operating the vessel during the accident as previously stated as well as the fact that OPERATOR 1 had been consuming multiple alcoholic beverages throughout the day. 
  
  KDFWR performed Field Sobriety Tests (FSTs) on OPERATOR 1 and consequently OPERATOR 1 was arrested for Boating Under the Influence of Alcohol-1st Offense (See Attachments for scanned copy of citation and Intoxilyzer Receipt)
  
  Another occupant on board, complained of pain to her lower left arm, her back and to some of her teeth as a result of the accident but had denied EMS treatment on scene at the courtesy dock. This occupant was also sitting in the bow of the vessel across from PASSENGER 1.
