RedactedNarrative: On the evening of April 23, 2020 Boat #2 was pulling crank baits (fishing) near what is called the Hesket plant fishing area.  
  
  This area is located along the Missouri river near Mandan, ND.  At approximately 10:15 p.m. boat #2 heard another boat coming north bound.
  
  Boat #2 was going approximately 1 mph while trolling, the boat coming upstream was "on plane" as much as they could be.  The bow of Boat #1 was higher up in the air but their navigation lights could be seen.  
  
  Boat #1's operator could not see boat #2 and was following his graph as well as looking side to side.  Boat #2 happened to be directly in the graph path boat #1 was following.  
  
  As boat #1 got closer to Boat #2 they started to hear yelling coming from the shoreline in which one of the passengers in Boat #1 stood up and said something to the operator but it was too late. 
  
  Boat #1 ran directly over boat #2, striking to the starboard side of the motor. 
  
  The occupants in boat #2 jumped out as boat #1 was striking their boat.  Boat #2 was still traveling northbound as the kill switch was not connected and the trolling motor was still on.  
  
  Two of the individuals in the water were picked up by boat #1 but then the motor died.  One of the individuals from boat #2 was struggling in the water when one of the picked up individuals got the boat running again and went over to save the individual who was about to drown.  
  
  Ultimately all three individuals in the water were rescued by Boat #1. They were taken back to boat #2 where they were able to drive their boat back to the ramp.  Boat #1 started to follow but the motor again died and they had to use their trolling motor.  Ultimately boat #1 was towed by Burleigh county swift water rescue back to shore.  
  
  In the process of running over boat #2, one passenger in Boat #1 ended up hitting his head on the post to the bow chair and suffered a concussion.  As of 4/28/2020 no others had indicated they had sought further medical attention.
