Victoria Crane, 27, leapt into action after the two-year-old girl was found face down in the water
A Scots mum who saved a child from drowning in a Glasgow park has been nominated for a prestigious award. The Record reported last year how Victoria Crane, 27, sprung into action after seeing the two-year-old girl face down in the pond in Victoria Park.
Speaking about the terrifying incident, she said: "Instinct kicked in and I ran over because we were the closest people to him. She was choking on water. I put her over my knee to try help her bring up as much water as possible. The wee girl was slipping in and out of consciousness. "After five to 10 minutes I had to start giving her CPR. After giving mouth-to-mouth and CPR she let out a groan and that's when the ambulance took over. The wee girl was the same age as my youngest.
