RedactedNarrative: On 05/07/2022, approximately 1840 hours, Sergeant was notified by a subject that a vessel had capsized in Caminada Pass located in Jefferson Parish. Sergeant responded within minutes and observed 8 subjects on top of the capsized vessel. Sergeant removed the subjects from the vessel and placed them into his patrol vessel. That is when Seargent learned that a 7 year old was missing. Sergeant entered the water and began searching for the child. The child was located under the capsized vessel near the bow. Sergeant secured the child and returned to patrol vessel and began CPR. Sergeant relocated to Bridgeside Marina where the child was turned over to EMS. The child was transported to Lady of the Sea Hospital in Galliano, then Air-med to Children's Hospital in New Olreans for further treatment. 
  
  Upon interviewing the operator and passengers of the vessel, it was learned that the vessel was traveling north in Caminada Pass at idle speed, when a wave over topped the gunwales of the port side of the vessel, filling the vessel with water. The occupants of the vessel shifted their positions to the starboard side of the vessel to counter balance the weight of the water. When doing so, this caused the water to shift to the starboard side and caused the vessel to capsize. 7 of the 9 occupants were wearing PFDs. The vessel was equipped with remote steering. Agents do not believe alcohol or drugs were a factor in the incident. The 7 year old child was the only subject that suffered any injuries. She had a small amount of water in her lungs and is expected to make a full recovery. The operator will be issued a citation for overloading.
