RedactedNarrative: On June 12th, 2017 at 1949 hours, I, Officer First Class Colón of the Maryland Natural Resources Police, responded to Paradise Watersports in regards to a Personal Water Craft (PWC) accident.  When I arrived on scene, I met with the General Manager of Paradise Watersports.  He explained that two of his rented PWC's were involved in an accident.  There were no injuries and the parties were still on scene.  
  
  According to Paradise Watersports, the PWC rental left at 1720 tour and the incident occurred at approximately 1800 hours.  There were three PWC guides with the rental group.  Each guide provided a written statement of the events.  The manager showed me the damage to the PWC's, which were numbered and showed who they were assigned to during that rental period.  They also provided all documentation in regards to rental agreements, liability statements and boating safety testing.  
  
  Rental PWC #6, MD 7618 DA, was assigned to Operator2. PWC #6 had damage to the front hood.  The hood had damaged plastic components and paint transfer/scuff marks to the port side bow.  
  
  Rental PWC #26, MD 7602 DA, was assigned to Operator1.  PWC #26 had significant fiberglass damage to the starboard side of the hull on the bow and stern.  There was also damage to the plastic components at the stern.
  
  According to the statements given by the guides, Operator1, who was operating PWC #26, struck Operator2's PWC #6 head on.  Operator1's starboard bow went up onto the starboard hood of Operator2's ski.  When the vessels collided, Operator2 was ejected from the ski and landed in the water.  The guide stated that Operator2 informed him that he had no injuries.  The guides stated that both PWC's were travelling fast and within 100' of each other.  The guides proceeded to take the keys from the jet skis and ended the tour.  
  
  The PWC's were out of the water and on the floating PWC docks.  Photos were taken of the damage that was observed at that time.  Mangaer stated that they would do a full assessment of the damage with the business owner to get a full estimate.  The damage was estimated to be in excess of $4,000. 
  
  After reviewing the statements and observing the damage to the skis, the damage is consistent with what the guides witnessed. 
  
  I spoke with Operator1 and Operator2.  I offered for them to give a written statement in regards to the events that occurred.  Both subjects refused to give a statement and stated that they want to proceed with legal counsel.  They also stated that they would not pay for the damage to the PWC's.  I informed them that charges would be pending for the case and that Paradise Watersports can pursue the cost of damages through civil court. 
  
  All events occurred in Worcester County, Maryland.
