On June 24, 2023, I, Texas Game, received a call from a Corpus Christi Police Officer about a single PWC accident that occurred in the Ski Canals on the island in Corpus Christi, Texas. I then contacted Texas Game Warden to meet the CCPD officer at the boat ramp because he was in the area. I traveled to Bay Area Hospital to check on the victim. When I arrived, I learned that the lone operator was deceased. 

I asked Victim's wife what happened. She stated that Subject and she were riding separate pwc's in the ski canal. She then took her jet ski to the bank for a break. After some time passed, she went looking for him because he had not returned. She did not find him and returned to shore. She went and looked for him a second time and noticed that a different man was riding her husband's jet ski. 

When she approached the man she was told her husband had been in an accident. She followed the man to the Cartagena St boat ramp where her husband was being worked on by EMS. The Good Samaritan's transported Victim to shore stated that an additional group of people pulled Victim out of the water, but these individuals names and contact information is unknown. The call logs from dispatch and the witness accounts both state that Victim was conscious when he was pulled from the water but lost consciousness at the bank. CPR was performed between the ski canal and the boat ramp. No witness accounts state what happened at the time or just before the accident. There was no damage to the Jet Ski and after speaking with the doctor at the hospital he stated that there were no obvious signs of trauma. An autopsy was performed by the Nueces County Medical Examiner and the results are pending.
