RedactedNarrative: On Friday, July 6th, 2018 around 1548 hours, I, Officer First Class of the Maryland Natural Resources Police, was on marine patrol of Deep Creek Lake on marked patrol vessel NRP 881 when I was dispatched to Garrett Regional Medical Center in Oakland, Garrett County, Maryland to investigate a report of a patient being treating for injuries sustained during a wake boarding accident.
  I arrived at the hospital at 1611 hours and identified the victim who was treated with several stitches to the back of his head.
  I interviewed Victim's father, also the self-proclaimed boat operator at the time of the accident. Operator stated that he was towing Victim on a wake board in the Sky Valley area when Victim's wake board struck a wave and the board struck Victim in the back of the head. Operator and his towing observer and wife transported Victim to the emergency room to be evaluated. Operator advised that he did not have his vessel information available, but the vessel was secured in slip at the Sky Valley community docks.
  Victim advised that he had just purchased the wake board and it was his first time riding it when the accident occurred.
  I located the involved vessel at 1659 hours, identified as a red 2006 Supra displaying Maryland registration 3048 BS. I interviewed an individual aboard the vessel who advised he was a passenger aboard the vessel at the time of the accident.
  No violations were detected during the investigation.
  All events occurred in Garrett County, Maryland.
