A tourism police officer saved a 9 year old from drowning, who had been swept by the current, while having fun at the mouth of the Cuale River.
The incident took place on Wednesday afternoon at 17:30 when Dan Osvaldo, a nine year old child, resident of the Benito Juarez colony, was having fun at the mouth of the Cuale River along with his mother, when suddenly the little one went after his toys towards the sea and the current carried him away.
When the mother saw what was happening she started to scream for help and some bathers ran looking for a lifeguard, but on the way they met a Tourism Police officer, who immediately jumped into the sea.
The officer was José Daniel Hernández Becerra, who swam about 300 meters to where the child was, who by that time was already unconscious, and he began dragging him until he requested the assistance of the vessel "Yiyo" that was nearby and boarded it to bring him into the dock Solidaridad.
On the way the police officer gave the child CPR until he managed to make him react and by the time they got to the dock, the lifeguards were waiting in an ambulance and the Red Cross paramedics who approached him took him to get medical care.
For his part, the officer José Daniel Hernández Becerra who was injured on his right foot, was treated by Firefighter paramedics, without the need to transfer him to a hospital.
