RedactedNarrative: During the early morning hours of May 27 2016 Operator1, Occupant1, Occupant2, and Occupant3 were on Cedar Valley Reservoir fishing and running illegal set and trot lines. During that time the group was drinking alcoholic beverages. When a storm came in the group attempted to pull the illegal lines and return the boat to the trailer. 
  
  As the group was headed back to the trailer Operator1 was operating the vessel, Occupant1 was running a spotlight on the bow, and Occupant2 and Occupant3 were seated in the boat near the stern. Occupant1 said that he saw a low hanging branch coming for the boat and dove into the lower area in the deck. The branch hit Operator1 and Occupant2 in the face. 
  
  When the initial impact occurred the boat turned and struck at least one stump that was near the surface of the water. The secondary impact threw the occupants and operator within the boat. Occupant1 was not injured and said that the boat was stuck on a stump within 10 ft of the shoreline. Occupant1 said that he freed the boat, drove it back to the trailer, loaded the boat and the other victims and headed to the hospital.
  
  This investigation is ongoing. Chemical blood tests and other interviews about the events still need to be completed.
