It is my understanding that it wasn't actually a hit and run. The fisherman
who hit him with his boat was also the one who came to his rescue. At first he
denied to police that he had been responsible.

Yes... this is apparently the case. Last I heard there were no charges being
preferred. But I wouldn't want to bet on no civil proceedings or other
litigation.

I wonder how the boy is doing. Nothing reported in the media on this side of
the state (the Cascade Mountains effectively separate Washington State into
two halves and little news from one side makes it into the other.
