RedactedNarrative: On October 15th, 2022 at approximately 1953 hours I, Corporal of the Maryland Natural Resources police was dispatched to a call in the area of Middle River at the #5 Marker for two vessels that collided and one of the vessels was taking on water. After speaking to Baltimore County Police, I learned that there were no injuries and all passengers were on land at Middle River Landing Marina at 1902 Old Eastern Avenue, Essex, MD 21221.
  
  Upon arrival at Middle River Landing Marina, I identified the two vessels involved. Vessel #1 was a 2004 Searay 340 Sundancer and a 1974 Grand Bank 32 Sedan bearing Maryland Vessel Number. The following information was collected from the passengers of both vessels.
  
   Officer First Class and Officer First Class of the Maryland Natural Resources Police were also on scene to assist help gather witness statements.
  
  Operator1 informed me that while operating the vessel he started looking for the Day Marker #5, as it was unlit. He said that he saw another boat coming towards him and attempted to steer away from the day marker. His vessel then made contact with the day marker and then struck the other vessel. Operator1 gave a rough estimate of the damage to his vessel of $40,000.
  
   Operator2 informed me that while operating the vessel bearing MD numbers towards the mouth of Middle River, approaching Day Marker #5, a boat was traveling 180 degrees of his direction. He observed the vessel on plane. He observed the vessel hit the day marker and then strike the starboard stern of his vessel, causing his vessel to strike Day Marker #5 with his starboard bow. Operator2 gave a rough estimate of the damage to his vessel of $10,000.
  
   Witness statements were collected from all operators and passengers and are attached to this report. Pictures were taken of the damage to each vessel and are attached to this report.
  
   All events occurred in Baltimore County, MD.
