Condit cited in boat accident

Gov. Bill Richardson's chief of staff Brian Condit was cited over the weekend in the now famous boat incident at Elephant Butte. According to a report released by the state, Condit was behind the wheel when he tried to park an 80-foot house boat and damaged two other boats and two jet skis.

Richardson was on board during the incident, as was Department of Finance and Administration secretary Katherine Miller. Leon (Skip) Fay, the boat's owner, and Brenda Fay were also on the boat, as were two members of Richardson's security detail.

It appears Richardson didn't hang around for long, though. An eyewitnees told the New Mexico Independent that Richardson, Condit and Miller left the boat immediately after the accident.
