Rousseau was not injured in the boating crash and a personal flotation device was being worn at the time.

Two of MacDonell’s passengers, Brett Lokhorst, 42, and Teresa Lokhorst, 45, of Norcross, Ga. sustained minor injuries during the crash. Both Lokhorst were taken to Saint Joseph Regional Hospital by family members. They were treated and released.
