RedactedNarrative: On Wednesday, August 9th, 2017 at 1749 hours, I, Officer First Class of the Maryland Natural Resources Police, responded to a report of a PWC passenger who had fallen overboard in Paradise Cove of Deep Creek Lake and was unable to re-board the vessel.  
  
  I arrived on scene in NRP vessel 881 at 1757 hours and observed the individual floating in the water behind a Yamaha PWC displaying Maryland registration 2773 LB with one operator.
  
  Victim informed me he had fallen overboard and was unable to lift his weight back aboard the PWC.  I asked Victim about his current condition and he informed me he was exhausted from swimming and trying to lift himself out of the water.  Victim asked if I would take him onboard my vessel to return him to Fun Time Water Sports where he and Operator had rented their vessel.  I cast Victim a throwable personal flotation device and helped him aboard.  
  
  Victim laid down in the back of my patrol vessel, holding his chest and breathing heavily.  I asked Victim about his condition again and he said he was experiencing chest pains and having trouble breathing.  I asked Victim if he required medical attention and replied that he did want medical assistance.  
  
  I notified dispatch to have EMS respond and transported Victim to shore at 20721 Garrett Highway, where we were met by Garrett County Medic 951 at 1806 hours.  
  
  EMS personnel advised Victim's blood pressure and heart rate were elevated and offered to release or transport him.  Victim requested to be transported for evaluation at Garrett Memorial Hospital at 1823 hours.
  
  I met with Operator at Fun Time Water Sports to inform him of Victim's condition and location.  Operator contacted me by phone at 1930 hours to inform me he had retrieved Victim from Garrett Memorial Hospital where Victim was not treated for any injuries or medical conditions.
  
  All events occurred in Garrett County, Maryland.
