Two people managed to save a 12-year-old girl from drowning  Monday,  after  she  went  face  down  in  a neighborhood  pool. Witnesses said the girl was in the pool with several other children, when she swam into the deep end and wasn’t able to touch the bottom. She flailed around for a short time before going face down. The incident occurred  just  before  noon,  in  an  Arapahoe  County, Colorado neighborhood.

Twenty-five-year-old Ikram Mohamud and her brother, 21-year-old Said Mohamud, sprang into action. They called 911 and Said jumped into the pool to rescue the girl, while Ikram was on the phone with medical dispatchers. 911 dispatcher Diva Miranda gave them CPR instructions, and they were able to get the girl breathing again. She was rushed to a nearby hospital, where she was recovering.
