RedactedNarrative: On March 27, 2020 at approximately 1212 hours, the Worth County Sheriff's Department received a 911 call from Operator. Operator1 reported that he was south of the town of Fertile on the Winnebago River. He stated that he struck a line in the water while driving his vessel and his passenger was missing. 
  
  V1 was traveling upstream when it appeared to have driven under a cable coming out of the river south of Fertile Iowa near the dam.  The north side of the cable was attached above the ground to a tree on a private landowner's property and the south side of the cable was submerged in the water and attached to property owned by Worth County, Iowa.
  
   Damage on V1 was to the passenger seat and outboard motor hood and appears that the cable struck victim while he was in the passenger seat and the victim traveled to the rear of the vessel and struck the motor hood before entering the water.  The autopsy shows that the victim had a broken jaw from the impact of the cable.  Neither the operator of the victim were wearing a life jacket.  No alcohol use was detected.
