RedactedNarrative: On June 8, 2019, at approximately 5 p.m., Texas vessel (TX-6241-CH) identified as vessel #1, was operating on Cypress Lake in Bossier Parish.  Vessel #1 was engaged in a tow behind activity having two riders on a tube.  
  
  Vessel #1 was operating in close proximity to LA-9285-GE identified as vessel #2.  At some point, vessel #1 did not have sufficient distance between vessel #2.  A rider on the tube, impacted vessel #2 near the port bow, which was motionless in the water.  Shortly afterwards, emergency services were contacted, and Victim was transported to Oschner LSU HSC Hospital in Shreveport, La.  Victim received a laceration to her left leg below the knee.  
  
  Victim was wearing a PFD at the time of impact.  Alcohol is not suspected in this incident.  Pending further investigation, in my opinion, the contributing factors are #1 - Operator inattention; #2 - Careless or Reckless Operation; and #3 - Operator Inexperience.  Upon completing an investigation, Operator1 was cited for LA RS 14:99 Reckless Operation of Watercraft.
