Baby rescued from near drowning


A 15-MONTH OLD GIRL WAS SAVED FROM NEARLY DROWNING IN HER GRANDPARENTS’ POND ON TUESDAY. THE CHILD APPARENTLY SLIPPED OUT THE DOG DOOR AND HEADED STRAIGHT FOR THE WATER. WITHIN A MINUTE, THE GRANDPARENTS DISCOVERED SHE WAS GONE AND SAW THEIR DOGS LOOKING INTO THE WATER. THE LITTLE GIRL WAS FLOATING FACE UP WHEN HER GRANDFATHER FOUND HER. HE BEGAN CPR, AND SHE WAS TAKEN TO UC DAVIS MEDICAL CENTER BY AIR AMBULANCE. SHE WAS REPORTED TO BE IN GOOD CONDITION ON WEDNESDAY MORNING.
