RedactedNarrative: On june 6, 2020 at approximately 04:50 pm, a personal watercraft was being operated by a hispanic male when it struck a wake in the vicinity of blue jay point on falls lake in wake forest, wake county, north carolina. The operator was the only individual on the pwc and was traveling at approximately 35 miles per hour on plane when he struck a wake while changing his direction of travel. The speed of his pwc along with the quick change in direction caused his pwc to go airborne and spin horizontally, ejecting him from the vessel. The operator''s right ankle was caught by the pwc while being ejected and was injured. The operator''s family and friends observed the incident and saw him struggling in the water. They utilized other pwcs to retrieve him from the water and take him to cedar island where they were congregating on shore. 
  
  I took a photograph of his injured right ankle, which was visibly swollen, and took note of the hull identification number on the pwc he was operating. 
  
  . I assisted the operator get onto the dock. We waited for wake county ems to arrive to transport him to wake medical hospital-north campus for treatment for a possible broken right ankle. I took note of the operator''s identifying and contact information and informed him i would contact him to complete a boat incident investigation. No other vessels were reported to be close to the pwc at the time of the incident and alcohol is not suspected to have been involved. No charges are currently being considered for the operator. Upon follow up, the operator updated me that his ankle was not broken but severely strained and swollen. He is expected to make a full recovery.
