the story was in the stockton record..it happened saturday night..

my co worker (ratha leng) and my friend (sean cholm) were boating out on the delta saturday night when they ran into another boat that was docked...they didnt see it.. they both were ejected from their boat..sean was saved by someone from the boat they hit, they threw him a life jacket...he was in intensive care early this morning but it being released tomorrow afternoon..he suffered 2 broken ribs, punctured lung, and a broken wrist. my fellow co-worker (ratha leng) when he was ejected they didnt see where he went...he doesnt know how to swim..unfotunately they are STILL unable to find his body..cops have been searching since early sunday morning...still nothing.. i know i shouldnt say it... but i know he's gone [Frown]

hes gonna be leaving his wife and children behind...he was 32.. we all worked out here in tracy at the orchard supply distribution center..

R.I.P [Frown]

you will be missed bro...

**UPDATE**

fisherman found a body along the river at about 230pm... i think it was him.. police arent releasing anything until the body is identified..

I don't want to sound like a dick but, the guy didn't know how to swim and wasn't wearing a life jacket? And crashed into a parked boat? WTF? That sounds a little like not wearing your seatbelt and crashing into a parked car.

I hope he will be ok, against the odds, but I had to express my WTF because that whole thing makes no sense to me.

yea it sounded ridiculous to me too.. i couldnt believe he wasnt wearing a life jacket..i didnt kno he couldnt swim until someone told me at work..and they crashed into the boat because they didnt see it and it was at night...guess those boat lights dont help too much.. ill keep u guys updated on whats going on.
