RedactedNarrative: On 5/11/19, vessel one containing Operator1 and Subject1 was traveling down the swollen Fox River as part a East Aurora High School group being led by Mechanic from the Friends of the Fox River organization.  
  
  Vessel one traveled ahead of the rest of the group and was not able to slow down due to their inexperience and the fast-moving current.  The lead of the group had traveled back to help several other capsizes which happened while the group traveled past the Fox Metro Water Treatment Facility and were swept in the fast current to the west shore where they came into contact with concrete on the bottom.  
  
  In an attempt to slow down and bring the canoe to the west shore Operator1 and Subject1 came up to branches from the trees and ducked to avoid them.  While trying to duck they capsized the canoe and were unable to stay with it in the current.  
  
  Subject1 eventually made her way to the west shore, but Operator1 was unable to swim against the current.  Several residents along the river witnessed Operator1 struggling being swept dowstream and called 911.  Approximately a mile downstream Operator1 was rescued by the Oswego Fire Department''s rescue swimmer.  
  
  He was very cold and transported by ambulance to Rush Copley Medical Center in Aurora where he was warmed, observed and released.  The canoe was never recovered.
