RedactedNarrative: On 7/6/15 at approximately 3:00 p.m., I responded to Hoopers Crab House in reference to a reported PWC rental accident with injury.  I met with the parties involved who were operating the following jet skis:
  
  I interviewed all parties involved.  Operator of vessel #1stated that he was operating his PWC in the designated Herring Creek riding area when he observed that he was approaching the red float lined boundary.  In order to stay in the riding area he executed an abrupt right turn striking vessel #2 in the process.
  
  Upon speaking with the operator of vessel #2 he stated that he was traveling on a parallel course along side vessel #1, when his vessel was struck on the port side by vessel #1.  The passenger on vessel #2 stated that he observed vessel #1 make an abrupt turn and was on a collision course with their vessel.  To avoid injury he jumped off the back of the ski and ultimately was injured in the process.
  
  I also interviewed the PWC guides and all stated that they did not observe the accident.
  
  V2 occupant was transported by Ocean City EMS to PRMC for injuries and admitted.  He sustained a fractured left fibula and left elbow.  No other injuries were reported.
  
  I examined both vessels and found the following; Vessel #1 had cracked fiberglass on the bottom of the hull and Vessel #2 had cracked fiberglass on the port side gunwale.  I found that the damage observed was consistent with the reported events. 
  
  I issued the operator of vessel #1 a written warning for PWC speed/distance violations and navigation rule failure to keep proper lookout to avoid an accident.  
  
  I request this case closed.  All events occurred in Worcester County, Maryland...
