RedactedNarrative: On above date and time, I Cpl. of the Georgia Dept. of Natural Resources, LE Division, was patrolling Carter's Lake with Deputy of the Gilmer County Sheriff's Office.  At that time we were contacted by radio and cell phone that a boating incident had occurred on the lake and that a person was being brought to the Damsite boat ramp with a probable broken leg.  We were also notified that EMS had been notified and were en route.  We then traveled to the boat ramp arriving approximately 5 minutes after the call.  
      After our arrival, we waited approximately 10 minutes until the accident vessel arrived.  We cleared boats and boaters from the dock area and assisted with keeping the victim stationary on back of the vessel while waiting for EMS to arrive.  After EMS arrived, we assisted EMT's with moving Victim from the back of the boat onto the backboard and into the ambulance.  Deputy gathered information from the operator, passengers, and victim while I asked questions about the incident.  
      The vessel operator stated that Victim had been wake boarding when he hit a wave wrong and went down into the water.  Operator stated that he believed Victim had broken his right upper leg.  Two passengers in the vessel gave the same statement.  It was very apparent by Victim actions and observations of his leg that the right femur was broken.  Victim stated when asked that he was just starting to learn how to wake board and had very little prior experience.  
      All parties were given business cards with phone number and e-mail address and asked to write written statements about the incident at a more convenient time.  No unusual contributing factors were noted and alcohol did not seem to be a factor.  Several attempts on later dates were made by phone to receive the written statements, however, no written statements were ever provided.
      During a phone conversation with the victim on June 10th, Victim stated that he had sustained three fractures to his right femur and had undergone surgery to place a steel rod in the leg.
