On Sunday April 16, 2023 at approximately 1730hrs, I received a call from Lexington Police Department stating a jet ski accident had occurred at Beech Lake. I arrived on scene at approximately 1741hrs. It was determined Operator was operating a 2008 Yamaha Waverunner with Mississippi registration on Beech Lake in Lexington, TN. While operating the vessel at an unknown speed, the vessel decelerated abruptly causing him to be ejected from the vessel over the bow. It is likely his torso contacted the steering column while his chin contacted the front compartment lid. The cause of the abrupt deceleration is most likely due to running in shallow water.   Due to the ejection from the vessel, Operator sustain a deep laceration to his chin and transported to Jackson General Hospital where he received stitches.
