Tragedy in Texiz.

[Lancer6]

Had this relayed to me by a most respected basser:

"A three-year-old boy and a man in his 20's are in the hospital after a
boating accident in Guadalupe County."

here we go....

The boat crash happened just west of Seguin, on Lake Placid. People said
there was such a loud bang, people knew something was wrong.

"We had people across the street, which isn't on the lake, coming
running over here because they heard the sound," said Jim Monkerud who
witnessed the accident.

"We weren't sure what it was, we thought somebody might have hit a
dock," said Monkerud.

But it wasn't a dock. Two boats had collided.

"We ran down," said Monkerud. "You could see blood in the water and
people yelling and screaming, so we called 911."

"It looked like the boat that was pulling a tuber struck the back end of
the boat that was pulling out of the slip," said Game Warden Kevin Frazier.

The collision caused two people to be airlifted to University Hospital.
The three-year-old had head injuries and the man was on the brink of
losing his arm.

Fraizer said the driver of the boat had been drinking and has been
charged with intoxication assault with a vehicle.

The three-year-old has been transported to a hospital in Fort Worth. The
man in his 20's ended up losing his arm and is still in critical
condition at University Hospital.

End Story

For the (hopefully) few here who think it ain't fishing (or, God forbid, hunting,) without a few brewskis; Is this enough to wake you up?
If not, how about the incident on Canyon lake two weeks ago?
A guy fell off the tube his blitzed buddy was towing him on. Said drunk buddy circled to pick him up. The prop got him. Dead in the water. Buddy charged with Intoxication Manslaughter and BUI. Frankly, in both cases, I'd prefer they be charged with Murder Two.
