Teen crewman breaks arm amid trooper boarding

From the Alaska State Troopers:

Location: Valdez
Type: Medical assist
On 7/13/10, while on patrol during the Valdez salmon seine fishery, Trooper Beck had boarded a fishing vessel in Port Valdez. During the boarding, the skipper's 15-year-old son caught his arm between the seine skiff and seine boat, which appeared to cause a break. Trooper Beck transported the juvenile to the Valdez harbor to an awaiting ambulance. The juvenile was transported to the Valdez Providence hospital, where it was confirmed the arm was broke.
