RedactedNarrative: On 4/9/16, at 11:48 a.m. Officer1 and Officer2 were notified by LDWF dispatch about a boat incident in the Calumet Cut located in St. Mary Parish. Upon further investigation, agents learned that Operator was operating a remote steered aluminum vessel in the Calumet Cut.  Operator was headed South in the Calumet Cut around 8:00 a.m., when for unknown reasons, Operator began veering to the port side.  Eventually Operator struck a tree with the port side bow of his vessel on the East bank of the Calumet Cut.  The impact caused Operator to be thrown into the helm, causing severe cracking and denting to the helm and steering wheel.  At approximately 11:00 a.m. Operator was able to flag down a commercial fisherman that was heading North in the Calumet Cut.  The commercial fisherman called 911 and rendered assistance to Operator until medical personnel arrived.  Once medical personnel arrived, Operator was transported to the Calumet Cut boat launch.  Once at the Calumet boat launch, Operator was transported to Lafayette General Hospital via Acadian Air Med.  Upon speaking with the commercial fisherman that located Operator, agents learned that Operator was not wearing a PFD (lifejacket) at the time of the incident.  Agents do not suspect drugs or alcohol to be contributing factors to the incident.
