Charleston County Volunteer Rescue Squad members answered an emergency call on Tuesday evening when an abandoned jet ski that was in the water near Charleston South Carolina.
Crews had to use a airboat and a metal flat boat to gather information to relay it to law enforcement.
Law enforcement officials did find the owner of the jet ski who admitted that the owner abandoned the jet ski after an accident earlier that day.
The United Coast Guard reported the good news that no one went missing in the abandoned jet ski incident.
Responding units cleared the scene of the incident after that all clear signal was given.
Better to be safe than sorry dealing with seeing abandoned jet skis in water in this case.

Not right to do things like that someone else could even run a boat on the jet ski,

Dammit, could of had a free jet ski. I make bad jokes. I hope they figure out what happened. No hurricanes to take it out to sea, maybe its like from an old hurricane and was swept away. I doubt it, but that would be a better story than what probably really happened.

There is something odd what happened near Charleston that a jet ski crashed and the owner was not seen when the authorities came to the area.

That is what I am thinking that the owner of the jet ski should have reported the incident.

Perhaps, the owner will be fined for abandoning his jet ski like that. The owner should at least have to pay for the trouble caused by him, and for the rescue efforts made.

I am sure that the owner of the jet ski will be fined since the rescuers had to deal with this incident.
