PHOENIX — A two-year-old boy is seriously hurt 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.
It is not known how long the child was in the water.
The two-year-old was rushed to the hospital in "extremely critical condition," but fire officials say the boy was breathing on his own.
