4-Year-Old Pulled From Morrison County Lake

MOTLEY -- For the second time this week, a child was rescued after falling in a Morrison County Lake.

The incident happened just before 7:30 p.m. last (Tuesday) night on Shamineau Lake near Motley.

The Morrison County Sheriff's office says a four-year-old girl was playing near the water with her siblings when she fell off the dock. Her father heard the other children yelling and noticed his daughter was face down in the water.

He immediately pulled her out of the water and started CPR. When authorities arrived the girl was conscious and alert.

She was later airlifted to the Minneapolis Children's Hospital and is expected to make a full recovery.

The Morrison County Sheriff's Office wants to remind you to always have your children wear a life jacket and to have constant supervision while they are near or in any body of water.
