MONGAUP VALLEY – A Bullville woman was reported in stable condition at Westchester Medical Center in Valhalla following a boating accident on Swinging Bridge Reservoir Sunday afternoon.
Kelly Brohan, 25, sustained fractures and lacerations in the incident. She was riding a wake board being towed behind a 22-foot ski boat. Friends tried to help her onto the board and the tow rope became tangled in the propeller pulling her under.
The sheriff’s office is investigating whether she was injured by the rope or came in contact with the propeller, said Undersheriff Eric Chaboty.
Environmental Conservation Police assisted on the scene along with the Monticello Fire Department and Mobile Medic ambulance.
