RedactedNarrative: According to witnesses the victim was operating his boat near Henderson Landing on the Alabama River. At some point the motor stopped. The victim stood up and attempted to crank the motor by using the pull cord. At that time the motor started and began moving forward which caused the victim to be thrown over the stern of the boat into the water. Witness stated he observed the victim be thrown from the boat and saw the boat strike the victim as it was traveling in a circle type pattern. Witness responded to the victim and observed him tread water for a few minutes until he went under and did not surface. Witness continued to search for the victim until he located him floating face down and unresponsive. He then grabbed the victim and pulled him to the shore. At that point Witness2 assisted Witness in getting the victim to the bank and then Witness2 attempted to revive the victim by performing CPR but was unsuccessful.
