An 18-year-old woman drowns after she rescued several children from rough water in a Minnesota lake, authorities say.
Several of the children could not free themselves and the 18-year-old helped pull them to safety before she went under the water, witnesses told authorities. She was underwater for about 10 minutes, witnesses said.
An 8-year-old girl pulled from the water was initially unresponsive, but witnesses performed CPR and were able to resuscitate the child, the sheriff's office said."All life saving measures were performed, but medics were not able to resuscitate the eighteen-year-old," according to the sheriff's office, which said it was waiting to release her name."So very sad. My thoughts and prayers go out to all the families," one person wrote.
Another commented,"I truly hope her family can find comfort in knowing their daughter, loved one, died being a hero so that the babies could live on."
