RedactedNarrative: On April 29, 2018, a single vessel incident occurred on the Tickfaw River, just south of Leisure Landing located in Livingston Parish in which 2 persons were ejected into the water from vessel LA-3642_FR.  As a result of this ejection one person was later discovered deceased with cause of death ruled as drowning. 
  
  Upon completion of subsequent investigation, based on all available evidence to date, investigators conclude that the contributing factor which resulted in this incidents occurrence were 1) Overpowering, 2) Excessive Speed.  
  
  Note: The vessel was found to have all of the necessary and required safety equipment on board including PFD’s. However neither passenger was wearing a PFD as is required by state law in a Class A tiller handle steered vessel such as this.  The fact that victim was not wearing a PFD contributing heavily to his death.
  
  Investigators are awaiting the final toxicology report from the Livingston Parish Coroner’s Office to determine if alcohol use was a factor in this incidents occurrence.
