RedactedNarrative: On June 20, 2016 at approximately 1415hrs I OFC, received a call from the communication center in regards to a boating accident on the Potomac River with injury.  I arrived on scene to find a young woman being treated by EMS for a laceration to the back of the head.  I identified the operator, who was the boat owner and did have a Boaters Safety Certificate through the State of Maryland.  Operator stated he was operating the boat in the area of Dam # 5 down river from the boat ramp when the incident took place.  The observer was identified, who stated Victim was wakeboarding and was coming across the wake of the boat when her toe side of the board caught and face planted her into the water.  Upon hitting the water Victim's board struck her in the back of the head causing the laceration.  
  
   I was able to speak to Victim before she was transported to the hospital.  Victim's story matched up with the story given by observer.  There was no alcohol related to the incident, nor error of the boat operator.  Clear Spring Ambulance Company treated victim and transported her to Meritus Medical Center for evaluation.  All events occured in Washington County, MD.
