RedactedNarrative: On July 10, 2018, at approximately 1600 hours, I received a call from the Department of Natural Resources Police Communication Center, advising me that my coworker Corporal from Area 2 was requesting assistance. The Communication Center stated that Cpl. responded to a reportable boating accident in his patrol area on the Eastern Shore and a juvenile was injured and flown to Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore City.  Cpl. was requesting I respond to the hospital to interview the injured Victim subject in order to determine the sequence of events that led to his injury.
  
       I immediately responded to Johns Hopkins Hospital and met with Victim. Upon my arrival, at approximately 1615 hours, I observed Victim lying horizontally on a hospital bed wearing a neck brace. There was another individual, later identified as Camp Counselor, seated in a chair next to the bed.  I introduced myself and asked Victim how he was feeling and if he would be willing to answer a few questions. Victim said that he was feeling “okay, except I have a headache but I can answer questions”.
  
       I requested Victim explain the chain of events that led to his injury.  Victim stated, “We were sailing and I bumped into my friend and fell overboard, once I fell in the water I swam back up and hit my head on the boat,”  I asked him what happened next.  Victim indicated that he wasn’t sure as he was very disoriented but he said he vaguely recalls people jumping in the water and pushing his arms up to the surface, and then others pulling him up on a boat. When asked if he felt like he was “knocked out”,  Victim stated that he wasn’t sure. When I asked Victim if the “bump” he encountered with his friend was an accident or on purpose. Victim stated that it was by accident.  I asked Victim if he was wearing his PFD, he indicated that he was.  When asked how long he has been boating/sailing, Victim stated that this was his second year attending this camp and when I asked about boating hours, Victim implied it would be less than fifty hours of boating experience. When asked if he possessed a boaters safety certificate, Victim indicated he did not possess a boaters safety certificate.  I asked Victim for his parent's contact information, which he provided.
