RedactedNarrative: On aug 5, 2015, i was contacted by richmond dispatch in reference to an individual that had been injured on a boat on may 29, 2015. The victim's mother just called now because she had got the hospital bills and wanted to pursue the insurance of the boat operator. I spoke with the victim and operator of the boat; they explained that on the date in question at approximately 1400 hours, an individual was getting ready to be towed on a wakeboard, when the individual started to fall and lost grip on the rope handle. This caused the rope and handle to sling-shot toward the boat and because the tow-rope was mounted high on the boat tower, it allowed the rope to "catch air" and strike the victim in the forehead; she was seated in the passenger seat facing back and observing the skier. The victim required 19 stitches at franklin carilion memorial hospital.
