DOVER, Del. – DNREC Division of Fish & Wildlife Enforcement Natural Resources Police officers cited a Claymont man following a boating accident on the morning of Friday January 16th near Wilmington that took two duck hunters on a harrowing course and threw them into icy waters before they managed to get to safe ground.
Jacin L. Allen, 27, and a companion were setting decoys from their boat when the tide swept the boat and both occupants into a large concrete culvert.
The boat capsized, dumping the two men into an adjoining pond.
Allen was cited for negligent operation of a vessel and operating an unregistered motor vessel, and faces fines of $100. Neither he nor his companion on the hunting trip were wearing life jackets when the boat capsized.
