RedactedNarrative: On Friday, July 1, 2022 shortly after 2000 hrs, operator2 and operator1 were involved in a boating accident on Herrington Lake in Mercer County. 
  
  At 2052 hrs. Bluegrass 911 was contacted by a person at Pandora Marina on Herrington Lake in reference to a 21-year-old male bleeding from the head. Subject made contact with Officer at 2053 hrs. Officer1 then made contact with Officer2. As the officers were en-route to Pandora Marina, Officer1 was advised the male was being transported to Ephraim McDowell Medical Center in Danville, Ky. Officer1 proceeded to drive to Pandora, while Officer2 drove to the hospital. 
  
  Upon arrival, Officer1 was unable to locate any vessels or individuals involved in the accident. He then drove to the hospital. Officer2 arrived at the hospital shortly after the male arrived. The male, Operator2, was taken for tests. Officer2 spoke briefly with Operator2's mother and was advised she was not at the lake and did not know what happened. Officer2 stepped outside and met Operator1's mother, who mentioned her son was on his way to the hospital. 
  
  Once Operator1 arrived, Officers asked Operator1 what happened and he explained he and Operator2 were traveling north between Pandora and Herrington Lake Marinas on two jet skis. As Operator2 was turning right to jump the wake of a vessel ahead of them, Operator2 lost control and was thrown from the jet ski he was operating toward Operator1, who had been to Operator2's right and behind him. Operator1 attempted to swerve away, but ran over Operator2 with his jet ski. Operator2 was wearing a life jacket and emerged from the water. He was able to get back on the jet ski he had been operating and he and Operator1 proceeded to drive toward Pandora Marina. 
  
  While on the way to Pandora, Operator2 felt blood on his head. Shortly after that, he stated to Operator1 his arms began to lose feeling. Operator1 said he then flagged down a nearby pontoon, which then transported Operator2 to Pandora Marina. Operator1 towed the jet ski Operator2 had been operating back to Pandora. Operator2 was then transported to Ephraim McDowell Medical Center by emergency medical services.
  
  Operator1 stated the jet skis belonged to subject2 and that while Operator2 was being transported to the hospital, he and Subject2 loaded the jet skis on Subject2's trailer and transported them back to Subject2's residence. Operator1 advised he then drove to the hospital. When asked if he had consumed any alcoholic beverages that day, Operator1 stated he had not had anything. When asked if Operator2 had consumed any alcoholic beverages, Operator1 stated that Operator2 had not had anything to drink while the two were together at the lake, but didn't know about beforehand. 
  
  Operator2 was brought back to his mother following the tests and advised that he met up with Operator1 earlier that day and drove separately to Pandora Marina. Once they launched the jet skis, Operator2 said they drove to the right in the direction of Herrington Lake Marina. He said they turned around and were driving back toward Pandora and he turned to the right to cross over the wake of a boat in front of them and he fell off to the right side. 
  
  Operator2 said Operator1 was driving up to his right at that time and was unable to avoid him. Operator2 said he remembered shouting and hollering and asked Operator1 if his head was bleeding. Operator1 advised it was not at that time. Operator2 boarded the jet ski and said he felt something weird on his head. As he felt around he noticed he was now bleeding. He stopped to let Operator1 know and the two continued back toward Pandora. About halfway there, Operator2 said his arms went numb and told Operator1 to either tow him or hold onto his jet ski. The last thing he remembered was a boat coming up along side of them. Operator2 advised he did not remember getting on the boat. 
  
  When asked if he had consumed any alcoholic beverages that day, Operator2 said he had not had anything. He said he had consumed alcoholic beverages the night before but it had been at least 24 hours since he had consumed any alcohol. Operator2 received medical treatment for a minor head injury (two staples on top of his head toward the front) and was released the same night to go home with his mother. Operator1 was not injured. 
  
  On Saturday, July 2, 2022, Officer2 drove to owner’s house to obtain information off the jet skis for the accident report. 
  
  When asked if there was any damage to either jet ski, Subject2 replied that there was no damage to either one.
