RedactedNarrative: On 05/25/2019, I Game Warden with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources along with Sgt. from Gwinnett County Police Department were patrolling Landshark Cove on Lake Lanier in Hall County by vessel. At approximately 2034 hours, we received a call over Hall County Event 4 in reference to a subject that had been under water for a short period of time at Shoal Creek day use boat ramp. We responded to the call; arriving on scene at approximately 2045 hours. Once on scene, Cpl. and I began establishing a search area based off of eye witness accounts. 
  
  	While Hall County Dive Team was conducting grid searches in an attempt to locate victim, I began collecting witness statements from the witnesses. After speaking with the witnesses, I determined that Operator was on the Red and Black PWC (HIN YAMA1218G898) without a PFD. Operator, had taken the PWC out to turn it around to put it on the trailer. As, Operator was making a left hand turn at a slow speed in front of the boat ramp, the PWC over turned causing Operator to end up in the water. 
  
  Operator began to struggle to stay atop the surface. It was at that moment, another jumped into the water to save him. Subject was able to get to Operator and get him above the water. However, Operator began to panic; as a result, pushing Subject under the water almost causing him to drown. Therefore, Subject let go of Operator in order to save himself. Another by stander threw Subject a seat to keep him from drowning. 
  	The ROV and Sonar was used to locate Operators body and Hall County Dive Team Recovered the body.
