One Hospitalized And One Arrested After Dangerous Ski Boat Accident

An Australian man was hospitalized when he was thrown from a ski boat being driven by a driver who was extremely intoxicated.

Four young men were riding their 6-meter-long vessel on the Myall Lakes Broadwater, just north of Sydney, around 9pm on Saturday. The boat crashed into a maritime navigation marker.

Upon impact, a 24-year-old man was thrown into the water and was rescued a short time later with difficulty breathing.

The boat was taken to a nearby resort and the injured man was taken to the hospital for treatment to his chest, facial cuts, and a broken tooth.

After the crash, police from Manning Great Lakes Local Area Command and Marine Area Command attended the scene and conducted injuries to all the parties.

The 25-year-old driver was given a breath test and returned a reading of 0.147. He was arrested and taken into custody.
