RedactedNarrative:   On 06/07/2017, I and Master Officer were notified by DNR Communications of a medical emergency at Savage River reservoir  at the Dry Run boat ramp. We responded to the area and met the witness. He said a man in a boat was coming toward shore, and somehow fell overboard at approximately 1:20 P.M.. The man got back to his boat side, and both made it to shore. About 10 minutes later, Witness was heading toward his vehicle, when he noticed that Subject was having medical difficulties. Witness sent his wife to contact 911. The 911 center dispatched Tri-Towns Ambulance and Bloomington VFD to the scene to assist. See attached statement from Witness.
  
     Officer was sent to Western Maryland Health System hospital at Cumberland, MD, to interview Subject, who was transported by ambulance. Subject said he was fishing alone on Savage River reservoir by boat. As Subject approached the boat ramp, he decided to lift his trolling motor up. When he did so, he lost his balance and fell into the water. Subject was not wearing a PFD, but made it to boat side, and swam himself and the boat to shore. There, Subject had shortness of breath. This is when Witness checked on him. Subject mentioned being cold, plus having diabetic and heart issues. Subject was not injured, but was being kept overnight at the hospital for observation.
