RedactedNarrative: On 6-27-2020 in the main channel of Lay Lake near Cedar Creek two jets skis crashed into each other. The operator of V1 stated as he went behind a passing boat jumping the wake and he did not see the other jet ski coming from the other direction until the last second. 
  
  He also stated that when he saw the other jet ski he released the throttle and loss the ability to steer the vessel and possibly avoid the collision. 
  
   The operator of V2 stated he too was passing behind the same boat as V1 but he was looking down and did not see the other vessel approaching him until just before the impact. 
  
  From the damage observed on both vessels, V1 was going airborne at the point of impact with the operator of V2. Both operators fell off their jet skies into the water. 
  
  The witness listed assisted the operator of V2 to shore where EMS was notified. The operator of V1 stayed with both jet skies on the water until help arrived and someone could secure V2. Because of his injuries and the distance to the hospital the operator of V2 was airlifted to UAB for treatment. The operator of V1 was uninjured.
