FARGO, N.D. (AP) - Police credit two teenagers for rescuing a 3-year-old girl from a Fargo hotel pool over the weekend.

Police Sgt. Mike Sanden says the 13- and-14-year-old girls saw the child at the bottom of the pool at a Holiday Inn at about 9 p.m. Saturday and pulled her out.

The teens said the child was blue but started coughing and vomiting once she was out of the water. The girls then called authorities and found the child’s mother.

The mother said she was going to take her daughter to a hospital to be checked out.

Sanden tells KFGO-AM (https://bit.ly/2kERmtU ) the teens “did an excellent job.”
