RedactedNarrative: On Friday, May 22, 2020, I, Tpr. responded to a boating accident on Wilson Lake. The accident occurred around 1833 hours and I responded around 1930 hours. I met with the operator. Operator1 was operating a 1997 Cobra Viper. Operator1 stated he had just left Lock Six Boat Ramp and was traveling east upstream. He had just blasted off for a fishing tournament. Operator1 stated that a wake was ahead and when he hit the wake his engine fell off. The engine stayed underwater for approximately 40 minutes until the boat was recovered at Colbert Alloys Boat Ramp.
  
  When I arrived the engine was barely hanging onto the boat. The jack plate had busted on the passenger side and a bolt was missing on both sides of the plate. Pictures of the damage were taken and are attached. A statement from Operator1 and his occupant is also attached.
