RedactedNarrative: On 7/16/2017, at approximately 0730 hours, I, Corporal (Cpl.), received a call from Captain (Cpt.) reporting a boating incident on Townsend Wildlife Management Area (WMA) in Long County. Victim was lying face down in the water, 47 inches from the edge of the water, at approximate global positioning coordinates (GPS) 31 degrees 39 minutes 04.32 seconds North latitude, -81 degrees 46 minutes 33.52 seconds West longitude. The water depth at this location was approximately 2 feet. 
  
  There are uncertain circumstances surrounding the events of the incident.  We did not observe any obvious signs of trauma. Victim was wearing a red in color short sleeve shirt, denim jean shorts with a black belt around the waist, white socks and a pair of black with white trim shoes without laces. CSS noted the zipper on Victim’s denim shorts was unzipped. Victim had a silver in color watch on his left wrist and a gold in color ring on his right ring finger. A black in color nylon gun holster was attached to his belt on the right side of Victim’s waist. There was no weapon located in the holster. 
  
  Victim had tattoos on his right upper arm, right forearm, left upper arm, left forearm and right lower leg.  Victim had a small cut on his left forearm. I observed a large scar extending from the top of the sternum distally along the midline of Victim’s thorax to the bottom of the ribcage. This scar indicates Victim had a cardiac procedure called a median sternotomy. CSS removed items from Victim’s shorts pockets and maintained inventory. A black in color leather wallet was removed from right rear pocket. The wallet contained Victim’s Driver’s License, a stent implant card along with assorted photographs and papers. A set of keys, two one dollar bills and two five dollar bills totaling twelve dollars were removed from Victim’s right front pocket. Victim’s left front pocket contained another set of keys, a SCCY® brand magazine containing four unfired 9 millimeter cartridges and a small brown in color glass bottle with a white in color screw on top. The vial contained small white in color pills believed to be sublingual nitroglycerin medication. Victim’s body was placed in a human remains pouch and transported by vessel back to the boat landing. Victim’s body was released to Coroner at approximately 1210 hours. 
  
  Coroner later transferred Victim's body to GBI Department of Forensic Services for autopsy by Medical Examiner Dr..  Officers left to interview vessel owner and operator. 
  
  Two men were on a boat to tie bush-lines.  One stood up to urinate off the side.  The boat began to pitch and the other man tried to grab the victim, which caused the boat to pitch even further and capsize.  One swam to shore from the middle of the lake and the other got on top of the overturned vessel.  At some point, he must have fallen off the vessel.  
  
  Both subjects had been drinking.  The victim had a .117and traces of cocaine, meth, cocathylene and benzoylecgonine.  The survivor had traces of tetrahydrocannabinol and meth.  At the time of testing, his alcohol results were negative.
  Although there were two life jackets on the boat, neither was wearing one.  Both struggled in the water.
  It is the investigator’s conclusion that the victim suffered a cardiac event exacerbated by illegal drug use and stress caused by the boating incident.
