RedactedNarrative: On July 5, 2019, at about 1130 hours, I, Officer, of the Maryland Natural Resources Police, received a call for service in reference to a boat accident which occurred on June 30, 2019, between the hours of 1530-1600. I made contact with the complainant via cell phone. Operator1 advised that on June 30, 2019, between 1530-1600 hours, he was on his brothers pontoon boat in the area of the Elk River speed zone and Triton Marina on the Upper Elk River with friends recreating. He advised that the pontoon boat drifted too close to shore and ran aground. 
  
  Operator1 stated that he exited the vessel and attempted to push it back into deeper water but was having trouble. He advised that two individuals on separate Seadoo jet skis noticed he had ran aground and offered to help get him back in to deeper water. Operator1 obliged and attempted to secure tow lines to the pontoon boat and jet ski. Operator1 stated that while he was in the water alongside the port hull of the pontoon boat, the individual on the jet ski bumped the throttle too hard and pinned Operator1 against the hull of the pontoon boat. 
  
  Operator1 advised after the incident, both individuals operating the jet skis left the scene. He advised that neither he or his friends were able to get registration numbers from the PWC's and were unable to identify the operators. Both jet skis were yellow, gold and gray Seadoo Sparks with older white males operating them. Operator1 could not provide a direction of travel for them. Operator1 advised that he was okay after the incident but subsequently went to the hospital later that day on his own to be evaluated by a medical doctor. Operator1 advised that he had muscle damage to his rotator cuff and skin abrasions on the left of his back and front right of his chest. He stated the doctors advised him to keep the areas iced for a period of time.
   
      On July 26, 2019, I spoke to Operator1 in regards to this incident. He stated that he had spoken to staff at Triton Marina after the incident, who advised that the individuals on the jet skis allegedly frequent Triton Marina. I will be making contact with staff at Triton Marina to follow up and attempt to identify the individuals from this incident at a later date.
  
  This case is open.
  All events occurred in Cecil County, MD.
