SYRACUSE — Indiana Conservation Officers have identified the suspect in a hit and run boat accident which occurred in the early morning hours of Sept. 23, on Lake Wawassee.
Sean A. Dada, 32, of Syracuse, was preliminarily charged in the Kosciusko County Superior Court with one misdemeanor count each of dangerous operation of a motorboat and leaving the scene of a property damage boat accident.
Indiana Conservation Officers were assisted by the Kosciusko County Sheriff’s Department Lake Patrol as well as several members of the public who came forward with information leading to the filing of charges against Dada.
Officers allege that Sean A. Dada operated a 1980 25-foot Chris Craft cabin cruiser motorboat on the morning in question and collided at a high rate of speed with a pier located at 11769 N. Ogden Point Road causing nearly $20,000 in damage to the pier and another $1,000 damage to his boat.
