RedactedNarrative: On 07/22/22 at 1249 hrs., geneva lake law enforcement agency was dispatched for a male pnb that had just been pulled from the lake. Upon arriving, lifesaving measures were being performed on the operator by town of linn and lake geneva ems personnel. I spoke with the operator's spouse/witness who advised that while sitting on pier she observed the operator traveling eastbound on a paddle board without wearing a pfd when a wake from a boat caused him to fall off the board and into the lake. 
  
  Subject said she saw the operator hanging onto the paddle board however another wake caused him to let go of the board at which time he started to struggle and went underwater. Subject said she started yelling for help at which time an unknown male and two females came running to her location on pier 783. 
  
  The two females then jumped into the lake and was able to retrieve the operator who was underwater and bring him to shore. According to subject, the operator did have a pfd on the paddle board but wasn't wearing it. 
  
  According to witnesses, they heard subject screaming for help at which time they ran to her location and jumped into the lake and was able to retrieve the operator who was underwater. They both indicated that they did not see the operator fall off the paddle board or did they see him go underwater. They were able to locate the operator based on subject's account as to where she saw him go underwater. The operator was located approximately 100 ft. East of pier 783. The operator was taken from the scene were lifesaving measures were being performed and placed in an ambulance to wait for the medical examiner to arrive.
