RedactedNarrative: On 8/3/2019 at approximately 1452 hours deputies responded to the area of coles bay at lake pleasant regional park for a boating accident with injuries. Witnesses stated the watercraft, which was towing a tube behind it, left the area after the victim on the tube fell off and was injured. Witnesses stated the operator was a male with a maroon shirt and the boat was dark in color, possibly dark blue or black. 
  
  I located the watercraft outside of coles bay and conducted a stop of the boat which was dark gray with blue and black where a black male was operating the watercraft with a maroon shirt. The watercraft was towing an inner tube behind it which had no person inside.
  
  I identified the operator at this time. A records check showed operator to have a felony warrant for his arrest for driving under the influence (3 felony counts of dui) i advised operator to take me to the location where the injured party was (his daughter) and he did. Once on scene it was determined the injured party had life threatening injuries and was air lifted to a local hospital.
  
  Operator made the admittance he was not towing too fast and did not know how the victim ended up on the shoreline. Additional witnesses on scene stated they advised the operator to slow down multiple times as we he was exceeding the wakeless speed in the area. Due to the speed of his watercraft being above that which was wakeless, it caused the inner tube to swing wide and into the shoreline which operator was too close to during his turn. I could smell a heavy odor of alcohol emitting from operator while i was speaking with him and he refused to provide a breath sample on scene. 
  
  Operator was arrested on the warrant and transported to the lake pleasant regional park operations center for additional dui processing. Due to the severe injuries of the victim a search warrant was authored by deputy, a state certified drug recognition expert, and granted. Operator complied submitting to a blood draw and breathe sample. Operator showed to have a bac of 0.136 at approximately 1848 hours and 0.130 at approximately 1855 hours (4 hours after the incident occured).
  
  Operator was booked into 4th avenue jail on his warrant as well as 1 count of arizona revised statute 5-395a1- operating under the influence slightest degree and 1 count of arizona revised statute 5-395a2- operating under the influence 0.08.
