RedactedNarrative: On 8/9/2020, I Officer of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), was on routine land patrol in Pasco County, FL. At approximately 3:00 PM, I received a call from Investigator (FWC) that a boating accident had occurred at Anclote Island. 
  
  The accident involved a 14-year-old occupant who fell off the front of a moving vessel (FL 7880 PZ). She sustained two lacerations to the left side of her head and one laceration on her right middle finger. The subject was transported by EMS to Mease Countryside Hospital where she was treated for the above injuries. 
  
  At approximately 2:18 PM, a vessel (FL 7880 PZ)  was returning to The Landings at Tarpon Springs. According to sworn written statements from the occupants, the victim was hanging her legs off the front of the boat when her towel fell into the water. The victim then reached for the towel and the vessel hit a wake which caused her to fall in. The victim was struck by the port pontoon. She resurfaced approximately 30ft off the port side of the vessel.
  
  The operator was unaware that the victim had fallen in until he was alerted by the other occupants of the vessel. He then put the vessel into neutral and dove into the water to bring the victim back onto the vessel. The vessel then went to Anclote Boat Ramp where FWC and EMS were on scene. The victim was conscious and alert. She was transported to Mease Countryside Hospital where she was treated for two lacerations on the left side of her head and one laceration on her right middle finger.
