RedactedNarrative: Operator of vessel #1 was pulling two people on an inflatable tube. Operator had an observer on board who was watching and video recording the persons on the tube. Operator was pulling the tube at approximately 25 - 30 MPH. Operator passed under LA Hwy. 1 bridge over Caddo Lake and got too close to the bridge support. The tube was on the port side of the wake as vessel #1 went under the bridge but crossed the wake to the starboard side just before it impacted the bridge support. Both riders were ejected from the tube. The operator quickly returned to their location and rendered aid to the victims. The victims were transported approximately one-quarter of a mile back to the boat launch. Both riders were transported by Caddo Fire District via ambulance to University Health Center in Shreveport. I arrived on the scene approximately one hour after the incident occurred. The operator was under observation from Caddo Sheriff's Office deputies until I arrived on scene. I interviewed Operator for approximately twenty minutes. Operator did not appear to be under the influence of any alcohol or drugs, and there was no evidence of any alcohol or drugs in the vessel. I conducted my investigation and photographed the vessel and the tube. The tube had cuts in the outer canvas and the tow rope was broken approximately 3-4 feet from the tube. The video of the incident was sent to me by the observer in vessel #1. Operator of vessel #1 was cited for violation of RS 14:99, reckless operation of a watercraft.
