One person was sent to the hospital last night after a boat collided with rocks near the Lake Okanagan Resort in West Kelowna.

“The Kelowna RCMP were called to assist with a boating collision last night around 9 p.m,” according to Cpl. Tania Carroll, with the detachment.

“A boater was attempting to dock his boat at the marina when he got a little too close to a rocky outcropping. One occupant on the boat required minor treatment and was taken to hospital by BC Ambulance Service. There was no alcohol or criminality involved,” she said via email.
