Description

A sobering incident unfolded on Hodenpyl Dam Pond in northern Michigan when a drunk 45-year-old pontoon boat operator, Jonathan McGrew, caused a ten-year-old girl to fall off his boat — and the propeller struck her, leading to serious injuries. The girl was airlifted to a children’s hospital but is expected to survive. McGrew, already a repeat offender for OWI, now faces charges for causing serious injury while intoxicated. His arraignment was July 27th, with a court date set for August 4th — a grim reminder of the deadly consequences of impaired boating.
