RedactedNarrative: On December 26, 2021 at approximately 10:45 am Sgt., Cpl. , and I Sgt. were notified of a boat accident, in Catahoula Parish, near the man made cut on Larto Lake.  Agents arrived on scene and photographed the vessel, a 20 ft. Skeeter powered by a 250 hp Yamaha outboard.  The operator of vessel one was brought to Trinity Hospital with minor injuries.  Sgt. identified the operator.  Victim claimed that he was traveling approximately 50 mph near Youngblood's landing when he lost control of his vessel.  He stated that he noticed a white boat coming from Shad Lake heading towards him, and he turned too far to the left, and then overcorrected to the right causing him to run into trees along the bank of the canal.  He admitted that he was driving his vessel too fast.  Statements from other witnesses and evidence collected on scene indicated that he was operating vessel one at a high rate of speed, weaving through several vessels who were fishing stationary, when he lost control and ran aground.  Witnesses claimed that he was the only vessel involved in the incident.  Agents determined that the fiberglass damage on the starboard side of the vessel was caused from the collision with the trees on the bank of the canal.  PFD's were accessible, but were not used.  Vessel one (remote steer) was equipped with a kill switch which was used.  Alcohol and drugs were not considered contributing factors to the incident.  Victim was issued a citation for 34:851.4 - Careless Operation.
