RedactedNarrative: Officer and I were on patrol on Lake Barkley near the mouth of Dryden Creek, when we were flagged down by a boat. They advised that a pontoon boat bearing KY 0720YW had pulled a kid on a tube into a Navigational Buoy. 
  We located the vessel about 60 yards from where we were flagged down at. Upon contact with the vessel, we observed a child lying on the back of the pontoon floor with two adults over top of him. Officer boarded the vessel and assessed his injuries. Lyon County EMS was notified via radio and they met us at the Dryden Creek Boat Ramp. The child was transported to Lourdes Hospital and I spoke with the operator of the vessel. He advised that “He seen a large, barge wake and was trying to jump the wake, but it was larger than he thought and didn’t pay attention to where the Navigational buoy was. The front, right side of the boat struck the buoy and continued forward pulling the tube with the child into it. The child struck the buoy with his right side causing his right hip to fracture.
