RedactedNarrative: On Tuesday, July 3rd, 2018 around 1445 hours, I, Officer First Class of the Maryland Natural Resources Police, was on marine patrol of Deep Creek Lake aboard marked patrol vessel NRP 881 in the area of McHenry when I heard Garrett County Emergency Operations Center announce a traumatic injury from a boat accident at the Deep Creek Yacht Club. The address provided by the initial call was 855 Shoreline Drive in Swanton, Garrett County, Maryland. I arrived at that location and identified the address as incorrect, so I responded to the Deep Creek Yacht Club located at 204 Yacht Club Road, Swanton, Garrett County, Maryland.
  I arrived on scene at 1455 hours and made contact with the vessel operator and uncle of the victim. Victim was laying on his back in the bow of a docked boat with individuals later identified as his aunt and grandmother holding a towel above his face to shade him from the sun. Subject advised that a wake threw Victim from a tube while he was being towed and he may have struck his head on the tube when he landed in the water. She advised that she and her husband, Operator, had both jumped overboard to rescue him and he displayed difficulty responding to their questions.
  I made contact with Garrett County Emergency Operation s Center and advised them of the corrected location. I checked Victim's pulse and breathing, which were regular. I noticed blood on the left side of his lower lip and Subject stated that one of his teeth had penetrated through the lip during the accident. I asked Victim to open his mouth, which he was able to, and I did not observe any blood collecting in his mouth. I asked Victim to state his name and home address, which he did without difficulty. I checked Victim's eyes and observed no signs of nystagmus. A bystander offered an ice pack for Victim's lip and I stabilized his head and neck until Bittinger Ambulance 942 arrived on scene.
  Victim was transported to Garrett County Regional Medical Center at 1523 hours.
  I identified Operator's vessel as a 2000 19' Searay 190BR with 200 horsepower Mercruiser engine that was white and blue in color and displayed Maryland registration 3835 BT. Based on my observations, all safety equipment was present, properly maintained, and utilized. I detected no signs of impairment from Operator.
  I arrived at Garrett County Regional Medical Center at 1559 hours and interviewed Subject regarding the accident and additional passengers aboard. I cleared the hospital around 1645 hours.
  On Wednesday, July 4th, 2018 at 1845 hours, I made contact with Operator by phone and he advised me that Victim had not sustained any serious injuries and he was released from the hospital emergency room after being administered some Motrin.
  No violations pending.
  All events occurred in Garrett County, Maryland.
