RedactedNarrative: On 2/21/2015 at 1727 hrs, I was dispatched to a boat collision at Canyon Lake, Tortilla Flat, AZ. 
  
  Subject told me there was a boat involved in a collision, up channel from the main bay area. Subject said a dog was on the damaged boat, but no one was around the area. Subject told me he took the dog, in his boat, to the boat ramp.
  
  I spoke with Subject2, who was on another watercraft, with his uncle, who were at the Palo Verde Boat Ramp. Subject2 said he found a boat, that appeared to have struck the side of the canyon wall. He said no one was on board it. He and his uncle checked the area and found a male subject, floating in the water. Subject2 said he and his uncle moved the subject, who was deceased, from the water and put him back onto the boat, with damage. Subject2 provided me with a wallet, which was removed from the deceased''s back pocket.
  
  The wallet contained an AZ driver''s license. The wallet was secured in my patrol vehicle and later turned over to Det..
  
  Myself and Reserve Deputy then responded by boat. Approximately a quarter mile north of Crucifix Canyon in cove, I found a 2008 black and white Ranger bass boat floating in the water, along the east side of the channel, GPS 33.56734, 111.39562. The boat was pointing a northerly direction. There was foam debris floating in the water in the area near the boat. The boat had sustained damage to the bow and the starboard side of the bow, where there was a substantial portion missing.
  
  In the boat, I found a male subject wearing shorts and a black t-shirt laying prone on the floor of the boat. A blue cloth had been draped over him. His head was pointing toward the bow. The subject had full thickness cuts to his right leg and the Tibia and Fibula were both completely fractured. There were full thickness cuts to his right foot. He had an avulsion to his lower left leg. The subject also had cuts and scrapes to his hands and a laceration to the top of his head. The subject was cold to the touch, apneic, unresponsive and pulseless. I confirmed the subject as deceased.
  
  Approximately 100 yards south of where I found the boat, I located the point of impact on the canyon wall, GPS 33.5643, 111.39663. There was white paint transfer on the rocks as well as debris from the boat. 
  
  As Dep. and I began to prepare to tow the boat, it was taking on water and the male subject began floating. Dep and I, moved the subject onto the transom of the boat and then into a blue body bag. The body bag was then transferred to my patrol boat.
  
  The damaged boat was towed to the Maricopa county Sheriff''s Office Canyon Lake Boat House and secured inside. The boat was placed in bay #1, and lifted out of the water. I removed the boat plug to facilitate water being removed from inside the boat.
  
  The body, boat and investigation was turned over to over to Det.  Nothing Further
