There is one issue of judgement that I would question; when the crowd collected, the operator should have known one of the good people would object. After all, "that person is having fun".
The boat driver should have left then; or he could have just reported his boat stolen and known the cops wouldn't have any interest; there is no profit in that call.
The fall back for the cops is to issue citations; there is profit is that.
