RedactedNarrative: On 06/15/16, I Ofc. was called by Officer to a boat accident on the Wicomico River/ Mill Point area. Ofc. and I responded to the location to find Ofc. and the vessel who retrieved the waterman from the water, along with the waterman's vessel at a high rate of speed going in circles. The owner/ waterman stated that he slipped on his vessel causing the throttle to be pushed full forward and while trying to grasp something to hold on he forced the vessel into a circle motion and fell off. While in the water the waterman was trapped in the middle of the vessel doing circles around him. Upon trying to swim out he was hit three times by the vessel. Once out of the way of the vessel, another waterman noticed the vessel doing circle's and realized there was no one on the vessel. He quickly went to the vessel and noticed the waterman in the water and helped him on his vessel. Victim was then placed on the vessel with Ofc..
  
   Once the scene was cleared and safe from any persons or vessels, there were several attempts made by NRP to foul the boats prop to try and get it to shut down. Ofc. called Ofcs on the Zodiac to attempt to come along side the vessel. Because of the speed and sharp turns, coming along the vessel was unsuccessful and not safe. After about 2-3 hours of attempting to slow the vessel, we were finally successful to foul the prop and get a officer on the vessel to shut the engine off. Victim was cleared by EMS with no life threatening injuries, and the victim’s son met us on shore with the ambulance and took possession of the vessel. 
  
  
   All events occurred in St. Mary's County.
