RedactedNarrative: At approximately 6:30 am Vessel 1 Operator and Passenger seen by witnesses launching their boat at the boat landing on the west side of the Wisconsin River below the DuBay Dam off of Dam Rd in Portage County.  
  
  They proceeded upstream directly below the dam on the western section of the dam where the dam's gates were closed and the water was fairly calm.  They remained in that location for approximately 10 minutes and then began slowly traveling easterly along the dam towards two open gates (gates 8 and 9).  
  
  One witness believed they were using their trolling motor because they traveled slowly and parallel the dam.  Video evidence from the Dam showed an individual wearing a light-colored jacket, likely the Operator in the front of the boat running the trolling motor and an individual in dark clothes sitting at the console, likely the Passenger.  
  
  The front of the boat was facing the southwest away from the turbulent waters of the open gates and was moving backwards to the northeast.  As the rear of the boat started to enter the fast-moving water, the Passenger stands up and stepped towards the front of the boat.  The boat quickly capsizes and is seen flipping several times in the turbulent waters below the two open gates.  
  
  The boat eventually is pinned up against the concrete divider between the two open gates.  Witnesses observed both the Operator and Passenger surface 50 to 60 yards down river and struggled to stay above water.  The Passenger was taken by the current towards the east and the Operator was taken towards the west.  At about 6:54am a witness called 911 and alerts another boater who was launching their boat to elicited their help.  
  
  When the witness looked back towards the water they could not see either the Operator or Passenger on the surface.  At 7:20am the dam gates started to be closed and shortly thereafter the boat dislodged from the dam and floated down stream upside down.  A bystander in a boat recovered life jackets and other items floating down stream, but Operator and Passenger never resurfaced.  
  
  At about 8:50am Emergency Personal located the Passenger just off shore in about 3 feet of water along the east bank of the river about 210 yards downstream of the dam.  On 10/23/18 the Operator was recovered about 7 miles downstream.
