RedactedNarrative: On 6/15/22 two individuals were operating personal watercrafts in front of montrose beach. Operator2''s jet ski died. He tried to get back on but the water was to choppy. A samaritin tried to help operator1 and operator2 with the two jet skis.  Life guards seen individuals were unable to mount jetskis and attempted to rescue them. Life guard boat had a rope get stuck in their propeller. Winds are reported 28 knots and 4 foot waves. Chicago police units responded. Jet skis were initially towed in by lifeguard boats, cpd came to tow the life guard boat and the jet skis  and operator2''s jet ski was lost/ searched for and found later with minimal damage.
  
  
  Operator1 claims the watercraft sustained damages during the tow from harsh towing practices. Rope around handle bars instead of bow eye and being submerged. 
  
  I contacted operator1 
  
  After jetski was appraised for damages, owner wanted a report filed on the incident.
  
  Operator2 was unable to remember or retrieve the number of the owner or registration of the jetski he used. He said damage was minimal, it was fixed and returned in short order.
