RedactedNarrative: On 1-26-16, at 0822 hours, I, Cpl. #1 heard a call go out for an overturned canoe with a subject in the water in the area of Dover Bridge.  I responded to the area, as did Sgt. #1.  Prior to my arrival, I was advised that the subject, later identified as Subject1, was out of the water and being tended to by Talbot County EMS personnel. Upon arrival on scene, I met with Sgt. #1, who was already on scene.  Sgt. #1 advised that Subject1 was being transported to Easton Hospital by Talbot County EMS. 
  The witnesses advised that they, along with Subject1 were duck hunting from shore at that address on the Choptank River.  The subjects advised that they had injured a duck and Subject1 went after the duck in a canoe.  The subjects advised that Subject1 attempted to grab the duck and turned the canoe over as he reached for it.  Witness#1 advised that he called 911.  The subjects advised that Subject1 attempted to re-enter the canoe, but was unsuccessful.  The witnesses further advised that Subject1 was not wearing a life jacket, nor was there one in the canoe.  They advised that Subject1 then used the overturned canoe as floatation and began swimming towards shore.  The witnesses stated that approximately 10 minutes later Subject1 made it to shore and they transported him to the house on the property to meet EMS personnel
  
  Shortly after my arrival, Subject1 was transported to Easton Hospital.  Cpl. #2 and OFC #1 were advised and responded to the hospital to obtain Subject1's information.
