LAKE OF THE OZARKS, Mo. — Two 15-year-old girls riding a personal watercraft reportedly cut in front of a pontoon and got hit Sunday afternoon.

The two unidentified juveniles, from Jefferson City and Russellville, Mo., were riding a 2013 Yamaha Waverunner at the 2MM of the Grand Glaize Arm at 12:30 p.m., May 26, when the PWC allegedly travelled in front of a 2010 Playcraft tri-toon and got hit, ejecting the girls, according to the Missouri State Highway Patrol. 

Both of the girls were wearing lifejackets. They were transported to Lake Regional Hospital with moderate-to-serious injuries. One of the girls was flown by helicopter to University Hospital, according to the MSHP report. 

The PWC they were riding was totaled and taken from the water at Public Beach No. 2, the report stated. 

The driver of the Playcraft, a 53-year-old man from Columbia, Mo., was uninjured. The vessel reportedly suffered minor damage and was released to the owner to drive from the scene.
