Jet Skis and booze don’t mix. A man from Jefferson City faces boating while intoxicated charges after a woman is thrown off his personal watercraft on the Osage River Saturday night. Troopers say 23 – year old Cole Patterson hit a shallow spot in the river and his 43 – year old female passenger went off the Jet Ski. He was arrested after fleeing the scene.
She suffered serious injuries and was taken to University Hospital.
