McKay was working aboard the fishing vessel Pamele Rae when he hit his head after falling aboard the vessel. A fellow crewmember called the United States Coast Guard for assistance. A Coast Guard rescue crew responded and medevaced McKay to Juneau, where he was taken to Bartlett Regional Hospital for further care. The Pamele Rae is homeported in Petersburg.
