RedactedNarrative:   On September 23, 2016 I, Officer First Class of the Maryland Natural Resources Police was dispatched a call in reference to a boat accident that had occurred earlier in the day. I then made contact with the complainant who advised me of the following information. 
  
   Subject advised me that he was in a single rowing scull rowing in the area of the Middle Branch section of the Patapsco River south of Hanover Street Bridge when a jon boat accelerated towards his boat and collided with his vessel. Subject advised that the vessel was a green aluminum crabbing boat bearing Maryland registration 2489 AS. According to Subject there were no injuries as result of the collision. Subject said the operator of the aluminum boat became aggressive and the two became engaged in a verbal altercation about what had happened. Subject returned to shore to get his camera and then used a motorboat to return to the scene and take pictures of the other vessel involved. The operator became irate and followed him back to the boat ramp where the two went their separate ways. All of this according to Subject occurred around 7:30 AM the morning of September 23, 2016. Subject advised me that the damage to his vessel would cost approximately $500.00 to repair.  
  
    After speaking with Subject I ran the MD registration of the other vessel involved. I made contact with the owner who advised me that he was not on the boat that morning but rather his brother was using his boat that day. The brother then called into DNR police communications center and eventually got in contact with me. 
  
  The brother advised me of the following information over the phone. Operator2 stated that his motor had run out of gas and he was sitting in Middle Branch when he saw the rowing scull coming his way. He could not move to get out of the way in time before the scull hit the bow of his jon boat. According to Operator2 his hand was over the side and was smashed in the collision. Operator2 advised that the rower had his back turned to where he was going. Operator2 also advised that there was a verbal altercation in which Subject threatened him. Operator2 advised that he was able to fill up the tank on his motor with a spare gas can and then return to shore. Operator2 called Baltimore City Police who responded to the area. Operator2 then went to Precision Care on Wilkens avenue where he was treated for three broken fingers.
