RedactedNarrative: On june 23, 2018 at, or about 3:00 p.m. i was on patrol near raccoon lake in parke county, indiana.  I overheard radio traffic from parke county sheriff's department dispatching parke county ems to a boating accident that had injured a male on raccoon lake.  The boat and the injured victim had returned to the raccoon lake boat rental for medical assistance.  
  When i arrived at the raccoon lake boat rental i spoke briefly with the injured male.  Victim was holding his left hand in a blood soaked towel and appeared to be suffering significant pain.  I also spoke to another passenger on the boat who stated that while the boat was stationary, victim had leapt overboard in an attempt to retrieve a pair of eyeglasses that had fallen in the water.  Victim's wedding ring had gotten caught on the pontoon boat railing, which caused a deep laceration around the base of victim's left ring finger.  
  Victim was transported in an ambulance to the hendrick's county hospital.  All additional members of his party took control of victim's vehicle and belongings.  No citations were issued.
