RedactedNarrative: On June 17, 2017, I, RFC with the Department of Natural Resources Law Enforcement Division, responded to a single vessel boating incident in the area of Bethany Bridge on Allatoona Lake.  One of the occupants in the vessel was seating in the front port seat when the vessel hit a big wave.  Victim was then thrown into the air and made contact with the inside of the vessel she was in and ended up in the floor of the vessel.  The vessel operator advised that a big vessel was operating in the area and he hit the wave of the vessel and caused Victim to be thrown to the floor of the vessel.  There was a thunderstorm in the area and advised that the big cabin cruiser was trying to get away from the storm, in thus making a big wake.
  
  Operator or any of the other 3 occupants of the vessel had not had any alcohol to drink.  They were traveling north bound on Allatoona Lake from Holiday Marina towards Bethany Bridge when the incident occurred.  Operator got his vessel to the courtesy dock at Bethany Bridge where we then notified Bartow 911 to start Bartow EMS to that location.  Victim remained in the floor of the vessel until Bartow EMS arrived to get her into the ambulance.  Victim was transported to Cartersville Medical Center with severe back pain and injury.
  
  I attempted to make contact by phone with the operator and one of the occupants the next day to determine the status of Victim's injury.  I left a voice mail with both persons.  At the time of June 19, 2017 at 1325 hours, I have not received a return phone call.
  
  As of June 23, 2017, I still have not received a return call from any of the vessel occupants.
