RedactedNarrative: Summary
  On June 28, 2015 Operator rented a canoe from Fountainhead Park and victim was a passenger. Operator had rented kayaks and canoes from Fountainhead in the past but it was Victims first time. Victim did not know how to swim but Operator did. Type III life vests were provided by the park but neither Operator nor Victim opted to wear their PFD. At around 1500 Operator and Victim were drifting in the canoe when they capsized. Neither occupant observed a boat go by but both suspected a passing boat caused a wake which was the cause of the accident. At the same time Operator was moving around in the canoe attempting to retrieve items that were behind him. After capsizing Operator attempted to pull Victim to shore but had to temporarily leave to catch his breath at shore. Two individuals eventually arrived to assisting getting Victim onto a dock where Operator performed CPR causing Victim to cough up water. Victim is believed to make a full recovery with not sustained injuries. 
  
  Investigative Conclusion
  Through my investigation I have not been able to obtain any identification on the possible boat that passed by the canoe. With statements from both individuals involved it is likely that any boat that passed by did it at a safe distance and it was only normal waves that hit the canoe sometime after the boat had passed. During my interview with Operator statements were made suggesting doubt in the presence of a boat at all. Because of the inexperience of Victim and her described reaction to the first boat that passed them, it is probable that their capsizing was caused because of a reaction to movements from Operator attempting to retrieve items from behind him. Additionally, it is my opinion that Victims inability to swim and non-use of a provided PFD are serious contributing factors to the outcome of the incident. 
  
  All information received by Victim and the hospital suggest a complete recovery is likely and further complications are unexpected. 
  
  This case will be closed.
