RedactedNarrative: Operator was operating the vessel. It was occupied by four adults. Two males, two females, and three children. All Children were under the age of eight years. They had been swimming at a sandy beach area, and decided to head back to their camp about a mile from there location. They had noticed that the vessel had been taking on water throughout the day. The operator pulled the boat's throttle back to the neutral position. At that time they were out in the middle of the main body of Smith Lake in the Corinth Area. The boat immediately sank to the bottom. No one was wearing a PFD including the three children. The two male subjects swam to shore leaving the two women and three children in the water. A boater came by and was able to get the stranded women and children in his pontoon. He took all seven people to their camp, where the Double Springs Fire Department was waiting. Three of the Adults were taken to Walker Baptist Hospital. They were treated and released later that night. 
  I have spoken with the Winston County District Attorneys office and I am in the process of receiving warrants for both male subjects involved. The warrants will be for reckless endangerment, overloaded vessel, and child under eight not wearing a PFD.
