RedactedNarrative: On Saturday May 26, 2018, at approximately 1500 HRS, I (Sgt. of the Maryland Natural Resources Police) was notified of a personal injury boating accident that had occurred in Talbot County on Friday May 25, 2018. I contacted the reporting party via telephone to investigate the details of the incident. The details are described below.
  The reporting party is the owner and was the operator of the vessel used during the incident. The vessel is described as a 27 ft Ranger "Tug" with an inboard diesel motor and USCG documentation number 1236722 bearing the name "Bay Ranger." 
  OWNER was operating the vessel with two other passengers on board. At approximately 2015 HRS on Friday May 25, 2018, during a trip on the Tred Avon River with a northeastern direction of travel between Oxford and Easton, at approximately the half-way point, SUBJECT1 reports  that a boat wake rocked the boat causing SUBJECT1 to fall from her chair onto her left hip. OWNER became aware of the injury and called 911. OWNER, transported SUBJECT1 to Easton Point Marina. Talbot County EMS transported SUBJECT1 from Easton Point Marina to University of Maryland Medical Center at Easton. SUBJECT1 was treated for a broken hip and released on Saturday May 26, 2018. OWNER reports that the conditions at the time of incident were clear, with light boating traffic, and waves less than 6 inches in height. OWNER states that he did not recall observing or noticing a wake rock the boat, but does not dispute SUBJECT1' accounting of the incident.
  This investigation may be closed at this time.
