It happened shortly after 7 p.m. Sunday on the Diversion Canal. According to the Ascension Parish Sheriff's Office, a man on a jet-ski attempted to swap water crafts with someone else on a boat while the engines were idle. Investigators said that while getting onto the boat, the operator of the jet-ski slipped and hit the throttle, causing the vessel to surge forward. Deputies said that is when the man fell from the boat, and he hit the propeller as he entered the water. The Livingston Parish Sheriff's Office, St. Amant Fire Department, and the Gonzales Fire Department Dive Team are helping with the search.

Very sad story. Every year this area has 2-3 deaths due to lack of judgment by those who should no better.
