  Dispatched to a boating accident at Sand Hollow State Park.
  
  NARRATIVE
  Initial Information:
  Saturday, April 25, 2020 at approximately 1730 hours, I was dispatached to a boating accident at Sand Hollow State Park. Dispatch informed me that there were unknown injuries but that a female was thrown over board and the boat ran over her. It was stated that EMS was en-route to the accident as well. While leaving Quail Creek State Park, I had my patrol vehicle's lights and sirens on but at about half way to Sand Hollow State Park, dispatch notified me that a county unit was on scene and was in contact with the boat that was in the accident. The county office stated that EMS was not needed. I down graded  and continued to Sand Hollow State Park.
  
  Contact
  I made contact with the county officer and that people involved in the accident at the main boat ramp at Sand Hollow State Park. A female identified as Passenger 4 informed me that she was the one thrown overboard but did not receive any injuries and did not want to be seen by medical personal. She stated that she was sitting in the front of the bow on the port side of the boat when she went overboard. She informed me that she was thrown out of the boat, she swam downwards to get out of the way of the boat. Once Passenger 4 was above water, she swam to a nearby buoy and waited for help. Another female, a registered owner of the boat, identified as Passenger 3 informed me that was sitting across from Passenger 4 on the starboard side but did not go overboard. Passenger 3 stated that her two younger daughters were also sitting in the bow area of the boat, but did not go overboard.
  
   I asked for the operator of the boat and Operator informed me what had happened. He stated that a rock underneath the water's surface was unmarked by a buoy and as he went onto plain, the boat's propeller hit the rock and the propeller stopped but the boat continued to move forward with momentum. When the boat hit the hidden rock, Passenger 4 was thrown overboard. Passenger 5, the other boat owner jumped into the water with a life jacket to assist Passenger 4 back to the boat. Operator stated that he was unable to see the under water rock from a distance and that he was clearly out of the no wake zone south of the island. They were towed back to the dock by a PWC that was also on the water.
  
  Conclusion
  I received the boat's registration and insurance from Passenger 5. I took photos of the boat and its damage. There was fiberglass damage to the hull and the propeller's fins had damage and it was completely seperated from the hull. A passenger on the boat informed me that he had taken a photo just before the incident occurred and then shortly there after to point out where the rock was located just underneath the water. He emailed me the photos and I attached them to his report. They all gave me a description of the location just on the south side of the island and just out of the no boating area. I gave Passenger 5 and Passenger 3 the case number of the incident and informed them that I would be reporting it to risk management and they would be in contact with them directly. They were both very thankful and I left the area. I went out onto the patrol boat and found the rock that was hit by the boat. I took photos of the location and what the environment looked shortly there after the incident.
