PHOENIX — A two-year-old boy is expected to survive after being pulled from a backyard pool of a central Phoenix home on Monday evening.

Phoenix fire officials say they were called to the home near 7th and Glendale avenues around 6:45 p.m. for reports of a drowning.

When firefighters arrived, they found the mother of the toddler giving him CPR.
