RedactedNarrative: On 05/16/2021 at approximately 1730 hours I, OFC. of the Maryland Natural Resources Police responded to 312 Talbot Street Ocean City, Maryland, Under the Bridge Watersports for a PWC accident.
  
  Upon arrival, I made contact with the manager of Under the Bridge Watersports who stated he had two PWCs that were damaged and pointed out the party that had rented the PWCs. Cpl. arrived on location and started gathering photographs of the damage and other documentation I needed, while I spoke with the operators of the PWCs.
  
  The first subject I made contact with identified himself as operator1 stated he was going too fast and trying to splash his friends when he ran into the starboard (right) side of his friend’s PWC. Operator1 stated he was on the PWC with Maryland Registration “MD 4890 LB,” and his friend was on the PWC with Maryland Registration “MD 1112 LB.” Operator1 identified his friend and stated he left after they returned to the dock. Operator1 stated no one was hurt and they didn’t need medical attention. While speaking with Operator1, I detected an odor of an alcoholic beverage coming from his breath and person. I told Operator1 that I would like to conduct SFSTs and he agreed to my request. Operator1 completed the tests to my satisfaction and I released him on citations in reference to the PWC accident. I provided him with his copies of the citation and the NRP case number for the report.
  
   
  
  I provided the manager of the Under the Bridge with the NRP case number and told him to provide me with an estimate on the damaged PWCs. I observed major fiberglass damage to the starboard side of the PWC that was struck. The PWC wasn’t able to be operated safely until that damage is fixed.
  
   
  
  Cleared without further incident.
  
   
  
  All the above events occurred in Worcester County, Maryland.
  
   
  
  Citations issued:
  
  - Negligent operation of a vessel
  
  - Operate a PWC on state waters in excess of 6 knots w/in 100 feet of another vessel.
