RedactedNarrative: On June 12, 2016, Operator was operating a pontoon boat on Blewett Falls Lake near Lilesville NC.  On board the boat were the Victim, Passenger1, Operator's mother and father, and Operator’s two children.  It was in the early evening around 5:00 pm.  The weather was clear with a strong breeze. Operator drove the boat up stream and turned back right and was heading down stream towards the dam and stopped the boat.  Victim exited the boat on the left side to go swimming.  Victim, who was not wearing a life jacket, swam towards the back of the boat and around towards the right side of the boat as Operator became aware by his facial expression that he was in distress.  Victim gave no other indication of struggle. Operator threw Victim a type III life vest which Victim was unable to reach.  She then threw him a type IV throw cushion, which again he was unable to reach. Victim told Operator to turn the boat around, as she did, Victim went under the water.  Operator and the other occupants on the boat in a panic attempted to flag down a boat passing to the right of Operator's boat's original position.  As the passing boat turned to head back up stream, Operator and the occupants of her boat were able to attract the attention of the passing boaters. The boaters attempted to seach in the water for Victim but were unsuccessful.  One of the occupants of the assisting boat drove the Victim’s boat and occupants to the Anson Co Access area.  Victim was recovered by Charlotte Fire Dept. on Monday June 13, 2016 at 8:55pm. His body was taken to the Anson Co Hospital in Wadesboro NC to be identified by family members.
