6 year old drowing, Helena, Mt

Spring Meadow drowning victim named


Fast response, fast recovery but to no avail in warm water. The team had hopes for a better outcome based on the speed of the recovery but after discussing with medical the chances were minimal after less than half that time under. Good to know but dissapointing to say the least.

Always sad to hear. Growing up in Montana myself, I know how many people spend time outdoors, and my thoughts and prayers go out to the family. Reading the article it stated that he was not wearing any kind of flotation device. I wish more people would encourage their friends and family members to wear them, and to also designate someone to keep an eye on little ones that can easily tire out and may sink without anyone hearing them. Sad situation.

That sucks. The adults don't bother me, the little ones...

This happened to me a few weeks ago. He was probably under 16-18 minutes. RIP little man.
