Chicago Fire Department news
Sep 19
Excerpts from ABC7Chicago.com:
A 3-year-old boy is in critical condition after he was pulled from Lake Michigan near Navy Pier Monday.
Police said the boy was with an adult when he fell into the lake on the north side of Navy Pier shortly after 1 p.m.
The Chicago Fire Department said the child was taken to Lurie Children’s Hospital in full cardiac arrest.
Investigators are still working to determine how the child ended up in the water.
