RedactedNarrative: On February 14, 2020 a vessel heading northbound hit Albee Bridge, causing the radar arch and part of the fiberglass top of his vessel to break. It swung down and was hanging on the back of his vessel. The vessel continued going North without stopping to try and contact the bridge tender or to assess any damage that might have been done to the bridge. The operator of the vessel also did not notify law enforcement of the accident.
  
  We made contact with the vessel at Blackburn point and escorted them back to Marine Max in Venice. At Marine Max we got statements from all 4 occupants of the vessel. Two passengers, the owner, and the operator. The operator and the owner both said that they believed that the boat was short enough to go under the bridge, and that they did not know they had to contact law enforcement about the accident. After an inspection of the bridge we were told that it was not damaged.
  
  The operator was cited for violation of navigation rules and given a warning for leaving the scene.
