RedactedNarrative: On May 30th, 2020 at approximately 21:36 hours CST, I, Officer, was dispatched to a prop cut incident at Rowena Marina that had taken place at the private slips, on Lake Cumberland in Russell County, KY. Vessel #1 (OH-8246-FM) was operated by OPERATOR 1 and was accompanied by one passenger, PASSENGER 1. 
  
  OPERATOR 1 was backing his vessel into this slip at the dock when he states, PASSENGER 1 got onto the swim platform of the boat and slipped and fell into the water. OPERATOR 1 states, he heard his wife scream and he immediately put the boat in forward to steer away from her. PASSENGER 1 sustained a severe cut to her foot and had to be airlifted to University of Kentucky Medical Center. Upon my arrival, PASSENGER 1 had already been transported by EMS so I was unable to take a statement from her. OPERATOR 1 was still present at the dock, upon contact I could smell the odor of alcoholic beverage coming from his person. I conducted SFST's on OPERATOR 1, he exhibited clues of impairment on all test's administered. OPERATOR 1 had the presence of alcohol at a level of .095 BAC which was obtained with a PBT. I placed OPERATOR 1 under arrest for BUI as well as Wanton Endangerment 2nd Degree. OPERATOR 1 consented to a breath test at the jail. The results were a BAC of .079. 
  
  On May 31st, 2020 Officers obtained a written statement as well as an audio statement from PASSENGER 1 at University of Kentucky Medical Center. PASSENGER 1 stated, OPERATOR 1 and herself had been out on the water for a couple hours and had returned to the dock. She stated while OPERATOR 1 was backing the boat into the slip she felt they were going to the dock so she went to push off of the dock. PASSENGER 1 says, she stepped on the swim platform and slid into the water while the vessel was in reverse. The prop struck PASSENGER 1 left foot and ankle. PASSENGER 1 stated she was airlifted to University of Kentucky where she had surgery and was in recovery. PASSENGER 1 also stated that OPERATOR 1 and herself had been consuming alcohol the night of the accident. 
  Photographs were taken at the scene.
