RedactedNarrative: On august 1, 2015, at about 1:15 pm, the operator of vessel # 1 was pulling two subjects on a revolution tube and four subjects on a molecule tube in stone house creek on lake gaston.   One of the occupants on the revolution tube fell off.  The operator of the vessel decreased his speed to about five miles an hour and turned back around in order to pick up the fallen tuber.  While doing so the other occupant that was on the revolution tube fell off of the tube.   When victim fell off the tube his legs straddled the rope that was attached to the tube.  His legs slid down the rope, and his right calf got hooked in a carabiner that was attached underneath the middle portion of the tube.  The force of his own weight, along with the force of the vessel pulling him, caused the carabiner to open, and it became lodged in victim''s calf.  This pulled a large section of flesh from his right calf.  He was rescued by other subjects on the other tube and was put in the boat.  He was taken back to the operator''s residence.  He was treated at the scene by the warren county rescue squad and then transported to halifax regional medical center for further treatment.  After interviewing the operator, it was determined that the vessel was adequately equipped with enough personal flotation devices for all subject on board, and all of the subjects on the tubes were wearing their personal flotation devices at the time of the accident.
