RedactedNarrative: On 09/26/2022 at approximately 1700 hours, while off-duty, I was notified by San Bernardino County Sheriff''s Department Deputies that a skier mishap had occurred near Cadiz Cove. I responded to Cattail Cove by land and was speaking with San Bernardino on the phone about the incident. They arrived at Cattail cove with Lake Havasu Fire Department and the involved vessel. Lake Havasu Fire Department brought the injured person to the launch ramp while I assisted the vessel to dock. I then spoke with the operator and his wife about the incident.
  
  Operator stated they were wakeboarding all day and Victim stated he wanted to do it. He told them he grew up wakeboarding and was able to do it with no problems. He attempted to get up the first time, almost made it up, however fell. So he attempted to try again and while trying to get up, he let go of the rope and started yelling in the water. Operator then brought the boat to him where they assisted him into the boat and called 911. Operator advised that Victim was complaining of pain to his left leg, however Operator was unable to see any injuries.
  
  I spoke with a nurse prior to going into the room who advised it was possibly a broken femur, however they had not done X-Rays yet to confirm. I then spoke with Victim.
  
  Victim advised he grew up wakeboarding, however had not done it in approximately 15 years. He wanted to try it and thought he was able to get up without issues. The first time he tried to get up he almost made it, however fell. The second time he got about halfway up to standing when he felt a sudden pop in his left thigh area and then increasing pain, causing him to fall. Victim advised he did not consume any alcohol throughout the day.
  
  I asked Victim if he would like a card with the departmental report number on it to which he advised he would take one to be safe in case he needed it for insurance purposes. I then issued him a card with the DR and my contact information on it for if he had any questions.
