RedactedNarrative:      On 05/15/2017 at approximately 19:40 hrs, I received a call from State Police Dispatch of a boating incident in the Town of Vassalboro at 960 Main Street.  I was advised that the two subjects were out of the water and the rescue personnel were performing CPR on a child.
  
       I responded and arrived on scene at 20:05 hrs.  The child had already been transported by ambulance to Inland Hospital in Waterville.  I asked the other victim and mother of the child, Operator 1, to sit in my vehicle while I attempted to ascertain what happened.  Operator 1 told me that at some point upstream they went over the dam and the canoe they were in capsized and both her and her son, Victim 1, were thrown into the river.  They floated downstream for a couple hundred yards and both subjects were wearing personal flotation devices.  Operator 1 stated that she found her son (Victim 1) “stuck in some branches” in the river, face down in the water and removed him and brought him up on shore.  Operator 1 stated that her son was vomiting at this time.
  
  Operator 1 stated that she did not have custody of her child at this time as DHHS was involved.  She identified her case agent.  At this time I asked Trooper if they could locate agent and relay to her what was going on. 
  
       I asked Operator 1 if she had any family members we should contact and she stated no.  She advised me that her father was deceased and her mother was out of state.  She stated that a mutual friend of her and her mothers' resided locally and I should contact her.  
  
       I asked Operator 1 if she was hurt and if she needed any medical attention.  She lifted her shirt over her left hip slightly and showed me a slight abrasion and stated she was very cold and couldn't feel her feet.  At this time I summoned rescue personnel to the scene.  After a short time, neither rescue personnel nor delta Ambulance had responded, so I transported operator to Inland Hospital.  
  
      I was met at the hospital and DHHS case worker and briefed them of the status.  I spoke to the nurse on duty and the attending physician.  They advised me that they were currently performing CPR on Victim 1 and attempting to slowly raise his core body temperature.  They advised me they would continue for another hour or so.
  
     I returned after a period of time to check back with ER personnel and they advised me that Victim1 had a femoral pulse and they would be transporting him by LifeFlight to EMMC in Bangor.  I cleared the hospital a short time later.
  
       On 05/16/17 at approximately 7:00 am I contacted the ICU at EMMC to learn of Victim 1's status.  The charge nurse advised me that Victim 1 was deceased.  At approximately 9:00 am I returned to the scene for further investigation.  T
  
  here were two dams upstream of the scene from the night before.  The furthest dam up was functional and the lower dam was dilapidated.  A yellow canoe was lodged just over the first dam.  Subject claimed to be the owner of the canoe and other canoes he provided for local users.  There were also life jackets available for individuals as well.  After photographing the canoe, Subject and others removed it from the face of the dam.  At this time I retrieved the serial number off the canoe and left the scene.
