PERHAM (KDLM) – Two people were injured in a boating accident on Rush Lake.
The Otter Tail County Sheriff’s Office says they were called to Rush Lake on Sunday, July 3 on a report of a boating accident. When officers arrived they located a male with a compound fractured ankle and a female with possible broken ribs.
The Sheriff’s Office says a broken steering column on the watercraft caused the fishing boat to make an abrupt change of direction ejecting the female occupant. Neither of the occupants were wearing life jackets.
Both parties were transported to Perham Health with non-life-threatening injuries.
