RedactedNarrative: On Saturday July 27, 2019, victim was boating with some family and friends on Kerr Scott Reservoir in WIlkes County.  Victim was being towed on a knee board behind a 1988 Aggressor bass boat when he hit a large wake and jumped approximately eight feet in the air.  When Victim came down, he hit the water hard still remaining in a seated position on the knee board.  
  
  Upon striking the water, he crashed and immediately came back to the surface calling out that he was injured.  As the boat came around to pick Victim up, he stated he was in severe pain and couldn't move his legs well.  The operator got Victim into the boat and drove the short distance back to the groups' campsite.  While en route Emergency Services was contacted and met the group on the lake shore at Bandits Roost Campground a short time later.  Victim was put on a stretcher and taken by ambulance to Wilkes Regional Medical Center in North Wilkesboro.  He was transported to Wake Forest Baptist Hospital in Winston-Salem shortly after for further treatment.
