RedactedNarrative: On 7/15/17 at approximately 2:20pm i was on duty in steuben county on big turkey lake.   I observed two matching pwc's towing/being towed towards the public access.   As they crossed into lagrange county i was waved over and was informed that they had been involved in an accident.  
  
   i spoke with victim, who was in severe pain and was unable to walk.  He was favoring his left leg, was unable to stand, and during the course of boarding my vessel he appeared in great pain.    I assisted him into my patrol boat and seated him in the bow.  After asking if he wanted medical help i contacted lagrange county dispatch and requested ems assistance at the public access.  I took two photos of the boats involved.  
  
  Contacting other nearby subjects i spoke to subject, who told me he was the operator of the second pwc involved in the accident.  I asked him to step into my boat and he assisted me in the care and transport of victim.   During the transport to the public access, victim appeared to be mostly coherent but on the verge of losing consciousness.   I saw him with his head lolled backwards, eyes closed.        
  
  Once at the big turkey lake public access i removed my medical equipment from my vehicle and began to tend to victim.   He was mostly conscious, and provided me with his name/dob and basic info including medical history.  He told me he had no allergies and was taking no medications.   He told me he didn't remember what day it was and was unable to correctly recall the current president (incorrectly stating obama).
  
  Because his mental state appeared altered i treated victim with oxygen via non-rebreather.   I used two cold packs to attempt to reduce swelling and pain to his leg injury. Cold packs were secured to the left leg just below knee level on opposite sides with rolled gauze.   
  
  Shortly after providing these two treatments stroh volunteer fire staff arrived and took over treatment while i collected statements and information for the accident.    
     
  After ems arrived i was able to photograph the pwc's involved and get statements from operator2 and victim.   Victim again told me he did not remember the accident and the last thing he did remember was being on the pwc.   Operator2 told me he and victim were on the steuben county portion of big turkey lake (east of the old railroad grade).  Operator2 told me that victim cut in front of him (counterclockwise) and he struck the port (left) side of victim in a t-bone type accident.   Operator2 stated he may have been at half throttle and after the collision victim may have lost consciousness for a second or less.   
  
  Examining the two pwc's involved in the accident i found pwc oh 3247 du to have a portion of damaged fiberglass amidship on the port side.    This mark was photographed and appeared to match the description of the accident as related by operator2.  The location of the damage was approximately where victim would have been seated and would be approximately where his left calf/leg would have been in normal pwc operation.   The statements/damage and victims injury all seemed to match.
