Citrus County Injury Attorney Blog
A group of Citrus County deputies have been declared heroes after they saved a little boy who almost died in a family pool.
Reports indicate that deputies were called to a Crystal River home July 4th weekend to help revive a 4-year-old boy who ended up in the family pool. The family was able to pull the boy out, but he didn’t have a pulse.
One of the deputies started doing CPR, and the boy got a pulse back as other deputies arrived. They eventually got him coughing and breathing again.
The boy spent the night in a local hospital and was released the next day.
