RedactedNarrative: On September 25th, 2018, I was on duty and in uniform conducting water patrol in Monroe County, State of Florida.
  	At approximately 1600 Hours, I received a call from FWC dispatch regarding a boating accident with injuries at IBIS Bay, in Key West. 
  	At approximately 1615 Hours, I was redirected to Lower Keys Medical Center as I was informed that the victim was being transported to the hospital for medical services. I was also advised that the victim was a German citizen and had sustained a head injury. The victim was deaf and communicated via sign language.
  	At approximately 1630 Hours, I arrived at Lower Keys Medical Center. Once inside the waiting room, I observed a male that had a bandage on his head. I asked the subject if he was involved in a boating accident, to which he indicated yes
  	It should be noted that communication with the Operator 1 was extremely difficult and was conducted via Google translator on my personal smart phone. Utilizing Google translator (English to German), I was able to ascertain the following information: Operator 1 was on a guided jet ski tour with IBIS Bay with other family members. Operator 1 was nervous while operating the jet ski and was operating at a slow speed. Operator 1 stated that the tour guide was telling him to speed up during the tour. Operator 1 stated that while on the tour, he tried to turn to the right in order to avoid the shoreline. Operator 1 stated that he was nervous and let go of the throttle while trying to turn, but the jet ski continued to go straight into the mangroves, where he hit his head. I asked Operator 1 if he received any training on how to safely operate the jet ski, to which he said no. 
  
  	When Operator 1 was seen for medical treatment, I observed a laceration above his right eye. The laceration was approximately 1-2 inches long, and approximately 1 inch deep. Operator 1 received stitches for the laceration.
   
  	All events occurred in Monroe County, State of Florida.
