RedactedNarrative: On 07/06/2022 at approximately 2200hrs, I officer 1st Class, responded Rogues Harbor Marina to assist Cpl. with a boat accident. When I arrived on scene all the involved parties were accounted for and receiving medical attention. Subject1 was in cardiac arrest in the North East Fire ambulance Unit. She was getting transported from the pier to Trooper 1 in the main parking lot and then flown to shock trauma in extremely critical condition. Subject2 was transported to Christiana Hospital. Operator was laying down at the dock next to the boat with several bruises, cuts and back pain. He stated that he hit a marker at the entrance of the Bohemia River. He was also transported to Christiana Hospital. 
  
       After the vessel was cleared by the investigator, CPL, the vessel was removed from the water for further inspection. The vessel was secured at Rogues Harbor Marina, in a gated compound. The belongings of the operator and the second passenger were given to the operator's brother.
  
  All events occurred in Cecil County, Maryland. 
  
  On July 6, 2022, at approx. 2240 hrs. I, Cpl. of the Maryland Natural Resources Police arrived on scene at Rogues Harbor in Elk Neck State Park for a vessel accident. I was advised by Officers from MSP and EMS that 2 victims are already receiving care and the operator of the vessel was still laying on the dock near the vessel. Later identified as operator was observed with cuts all over laying face up on the dock. After asking some questions if he needed medical, he advised take care of my kids and Subject1 first. 
  
  Operator asked if we could call his ex-wife to notify her to get the kids from his house. Ofc. was able to make contact with the ex-wife from a number Operator had memory of and placed her on speaker phone so Operator could advise her to get the children. During the conversation Operator advised her to get the children and that he think’s he killed Subject1. After the phone conversation he advised he was in a lot of back pain and couldn’t speak to us. Soon after Operator was taken to Christiana Hospital by EMS. 
  
  At approx. 12:00am I was advised by Cpl. to follow up with Operator and victim at Christiana Hospital. Once on scene I attempted to interview Operator where he advised he still didn’t want to speak. I then made contact with Subject2 who was alert and was able to give me a verbal statement of everything she remembers them doing from the time they got underway till the incident. 
  
  Just before leaving the Hospital I made contact with Operator to update him that I still had no info on Subject1 that she was still at Shock Trauma in critical condition. He then advised he wishes he never went into the Elk River and wishes he stayed in the North East River. He stated that they left the North East River from Anchor Marina and went into the Elk and heading back he struck a Marker. 
  
  After asking where everyone was sitting, he advised Subject2 was up front and Subject1 was sitting on his lap operating the vessel with him. 
  
  He then advised a light/ spotlight from mouth of Bohemia River from maybe a lighthouse caught their attention and was looking left/ port side from vessel. When he heard Subject2 yell look out, and next thing he knew he struck a marker. 
  
  Subject1 went through the windshield and her neck was all deformed and swollen, he then pulled Subject2 from the water and then operated to Rogues Harbor to get help.
  
  Operator advised he has over 30 years of boating experience and knows the North East River better then the Elk River. He advised himself and Subject1 have their boater safety and she was helping operate the vessel back to Anchor Marina in North East and to give her experience. The vessel belongs to his Father but it’s a family boat whoever wants to take it just goes and gets it whenever.  
  
  Operator then stated, “How much trouble am I in? I’m going to be charged with Manslaughter and I’m going to get jail time, I deserve it”.
  
  Operator advised it was pretty clear and calm with some overcast from the storms that were in the area.
  I received permission from (Operator’s brother) to retrieve any personal items for safe keeping that were still onboard the vessel.
  Nurses then took Operator back for a CT scan. I then reported back to Rogues Harbor to assist with Ofc. secure the vessel into the gated compound at Rogues Harbor at Elk Neck State Park.
   Nothing further to report.
