The Edgartown Police Department left the reason for the 911 call reporting Barack Obama’s private chef Tafari Campbell’s drowning blank, according to a new report from the Daily Mail.
Police logged the 911 call Sunday at 7:46 p.m., but didn’t list the reason.
The reason for every other call Sunday evening was given.
Daily Mail also noted the origin of the call was Wilson’s Landing, a paddle board launch site approximately two miles from the Obamas’ Martha’s Vineyard residence.
Police reportedly refused to identify the individual Campbell was with during the emergency.
The call log of the 911 call about Obama’s chef drowning was left blank. Every other call that night has a reason listed.

“Police haven’t released the 911 call yet or said who made the call, but the logs also state that the call came from an address two miles away from the Obama home,” Fox News host Jesse Watters said.

Tafari, 45, fell into the water on Sunday night while paddle boarding on Great Edgartown Pond. He was not on the water alone, but police refuse to name the person he was with.
At 7.46pm, a 911 call was made to report that he had fallen in and could not make it back to the surface.
That call is noted in Edgartown Police Department’s logs, but the reason behind it is left noticeably blank. The reason for every other call for that night is given.
The origin of the call is also listed as Wilson’s Landing – a paddle board launch site, some two miles from the Obamas’ house on Turkeyland Cove, where Massachusetts State Police say the first call came from.

The Independent has contacted the Obamas’ office for more details.
On Sunday evening, police were called after Campbell was seen struggling in the water while paddleboarding near the former first family’s home, state police said.
